The Laura Horn Art Podcast (Laura Horn)

Are you ready to start selling your art? There's a lot to consider, from where to sell your art to how to build an engaging brand. Not to mention the practical aspects of photographing, packaging and pricing your work for sale. Tune in this week as we dive into the ins and outs of selling art. 

There’s no denying the popularity of art process videos on social media, and offering classes can be a wonderful way to generate income as an artist. However, it's not all roses. From the issue of being copied to dedicating substantial time to editing and administration, there's a lot to consider when sharing your creative process. Today, we dive into both the perks and pitfalls of teaching your creative process to others.

This week, the ‘Redefining Success Series’ continues. My Guest is Helen Hallows, a mixed media artist based in the UK.

Helen has a deep love of nature and it shows in the way that she uses paint, collage and stitch to capture the essence and mood of a place.

In this episode, Helen talks about building creative confidence, using sketchbooks as 'process' books and becoming a more business-minded artist.

There are many threads and themes in this conversation, but one thing that stands out is the importance of valuing yourself, not just your work but also your wisdom and well-being.

Richie made a heart-warming observation this week, he commented on the generous spirit and awesomeness of my art community. It got me thinking about how important it is to build your village, to have people that you can call on & friends that you can shamelessly chat to about art for hours! We are so lucky these days as there are so many options both in-person/online. For me though, nothing beats chatting to someone over a cup of tea, even a virtual tea :-). Before you even listen to this episode, have a think, is there someone you could reach out to. Go on, make it happen! 

Not going to lie, the last few weeks have been hectic. Juggling school holidays while getting a new online class ready for launch has left me and my hubby feeling a little frazzled and also guilty. So this week we are taking a week off, well kind of. Work seems to follow us everywhere we go, but once this podcast is out into the world, we will be enjoying some much needed down-time.

Lazy days to swim, walk and catch up on books and podcasts. On that note, join us this week as we share what we will be reading and listening to as we wind down on our Summer Holiday. 

Find links to all the resources mentioned here. 

We’re back! Over the past 6 weeks, we’ve been busy getting our house ready for sale and preparing to move. It’s been a crazy time full of mixed emotions. One thing that Richie and I didn’t realise, was just how much stress we’ve been holding on to.

In this episode, Richie shares his fears of not being able to sell our home after being burned before in the global financial crisis. Meanwhile, I talk about pulling back from social media, getting off the content creation hamster wheel and finding comfort in my sketchbooks.

We hope you enjoy the conversation!

Today, we re-explore the main theme of this podcast’s season: “relaxation” and how valuing more R&R has improved our art practice, creative business, and well-being. We also answer your questions relating to this season and set a realistic break and return date for the continuation of the podcast. As we head into this short break, we wanted to say thank you for tuning in and supporting the podcast. We look forward to returning on April 15th for more relaxed and inspiring conversations!

Being brave is the theme this week and it is fitting as we have exciting news to share!

If you've been on this artistic journey for a while, chances are you've accumulated your fair share of artwork. From quick studies to finished pieces that feel a bit so-so, it’s easy to get overwhelmed with all the stuff! Should you keep everything, or are there benefits to clearing the clutter and creating space for new ideas? And what about reinventing old pieces?

My guest today, Kellee Wynne Conrad, took her time to develop her art because she wanted it to be a lifelong habit and process. A 100 day artwork challenge and a year-long passion project (Color Crush Creative) paved the way for the online art program she now runs, Experience True Colors.

In this episode we chat about her journey and how she juggles being an artist, mother of three and creative business owner. 

What I learned from Kellee is that if you approach your work from an authentic place and concentrate on what you can control, the other things have a way of falling into place. Oh and this all works best if you start the day with coffee!

This week, Richie and I dive deep into my mixed media layering process. From the initial burst of excitement, through the problem-solving middle, to knowing when to stop, we share tips and personal insights on every stage of a painting. We chat about why planning isn’t always the best approach, and the surprising value of keeping a bit of mess (or, should I say, mystery) in our work.

We also reflect on last week’s discussion about balancing art and admin, and I share a few ideas I'm taking on board.

Don’t forget to check out my free course, Abstract Pattern Play, available until October 3, and my 6-week Modern Mixed Media course, open for a limited time. I hope you enjoy this deep dive into the creative process and all its intricacies!

This past month has been one of the busiest Richie and I have had in a long time. We launched a new online class and pulled everything together for my SALA exhibition. All while juggling our kids being at home on school holidays! Makes me sweat just thinking about it. Phew, kind of glad it is a new month! A fresh start. Speaking of fresh starts, that’s what this podcast is all about.

After we hung the last piece for the exhibition, I  knew that I needed to take a few days to piece my life back together. I don’t tend to do things by halves so I decided that a total life reset was required and that there would be three parts to this ART, LIFE and BUSINESS. Join me as I share my tips and tricks for getting organised on multiple fronts so that you ready for you next phase of creative work!

This week’s conversation with Australian artist, Susan Nethercote, motivated me to get my paints out and start playing on a daily basis again!

Susan talks about the importance of ‘volume’ when it comes to art and the magic that happens when you work swiftly and feel your way through the process.

We also dig in deep with the business side of things and geek out over business structures, website platforms, email marketing providers and online course models.

It is all very timely as Susan has just launched not one but two new websites. Find out more in this episode and don’t forget to pop over and visit Suse’s new online home.

My guest today is surface pattern designer, Julie Hamilton!

In this episode, Julie chats about her love of learning, how she got started with art licensing and what it has been like to participate in the 100-day project for four years in a row.

And of course, it wouldn’t be an art podcast if we didn’t talk about supplies and techniques! Julie takes us through her process including how she paints papers and comes up with new ideas for her work.

Ever feel like you have too many tabs open in your brain? In this episode, I share my recent struggles with overwhelm and how simplifying my art business and practice helped me find balance. I chat with Richie about the clarity I gained from organising my thoughts on a whiteboard and the comfort of returning to simple watercolour techniques. This conversation also helped me refine my vision for the new online classes I’m working on and emphasised the importance of keeping things simple and accessible.

I hope you enjoy the episode! Tune in for a fresh perspective on embracing simplicity in your creative process.

My guest today is UK artist, Mary Price, who is also known over on Instagram as the Artist In the Shed! I absolutely love Mary's colourful and vibrant work. 

In this episode, she talks about transitioning from making art as a hobby to selling her work and setting up a professional art business. We chat about all the different avenues that artists can explore. Things like art markets, cafes, prints, workshops, online classes and even lifestyle products.

If you are also at the stage where you are beginning to sell your work or maybe you are thinking about it - this episode will give you plenty of ideas and encouragement!

Feeling the pressure to figure out and define your art? This conversation might get you thinking differently. What if you allowed yourself to play a little longer, to explore without constraints, and to gather inspiration from far and wide? That's exactly what I've been doing.

Inspired by Rick Rubin's book "The Creative Act," I've discovered a fresh enthusiasm, confidence, and sense of wonder in my creative practice.

It's made me realize that if we're always in a rush to reach the finish line, there's a good chance we'll miss something even more interesting and beautiful along the way. With this in mind, I've been retreating into my sketchbooks and exploring many tangents. This week, I chatted all about it with Richie. I hope the conversation leaves you as excited and inspired as it left me!

This week, I am excited to share with you that I have another artist guest. I am speaking with Wendy Solganik (also known as @willawatercolors over on Instagram).  Wendy has a wealth of experience. She ran her own fine stationery and invitation design and printing business for many years and it was super successful, but she left it all behind to focus on her own art and on her family. Since then she has been taking my online classes and exploring a more abstract style of watercolour art. With the work starting to pile up, Wendy had a question for me. What should she do with all the art that she is making?  We chat about various options including selling the work, giving it away and even putting it in the bin! I absolutely loved this conversation. Wendy shares so much wisdom and also asks me questions that I am sure many of you have wanted to ask. It’s a refreshing and fascinating conversation and one that really got me thinking. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!  To follow Wendy’s arty adventures, head over to https://www.instagram.com/willawatercolors/ 

In this episode, we talk about decluttering and getting organised, the excitement of launching online classes and the perils of asking for feedback. Oh ... and going to the gym! 

Why is it so hard to take a break? For the past few weeks, Richie and I have been debating the idea of taking a break from the podcast. It’s brought up a lot of fear in both of us.

Will it be detrimental to our business? Are we letting down our listeners? What happened to being consistent?

It took a bit of time but eventually, we let go of our fears and focused in on the positives. More energy! New ideas! Fresh enthusiasm! With that in mind, we agreed to take September off to relax and go slow. The thing is I am not all that good at relaxing. Richie - yes. Me, not so much.

With a bit of free time on my hands, I decided to go look at some houses. You can guess what happened next. Yep, offer in and accepted! We are moving house and now more than ever we need to take that break!! So with that in mind, we are doing it. This will be our last episode until the 7 October 2020.

We hope you enjoy it and that it encourages you to let go of the shoulds and take those breaks when you need them!

Do you prefer to paint in a series or on one piece at a time? As many of you know, I sit in the more is merrier camp and love working on multiples. This week Richie and I chat about why I prefer this approach and how I go about it? What becomes clear, is that it isn’t exactly a step by step process - it’s much more higgledy-piggledy that that. Some collections are more accidental than you might think. And when it comes to naming a series, I could be a bit more original!

We also chat about my love of writing notes and lists which leads to a possible new name for the podcast (well not really). Plus we talk about the power of rituals and our tendency to panic whenever we are creatively blocked.

It’s another big episode. Oh and for anyone following along with our house move - there’s an update on that too!

When it comes to your creative process, what feels hard? Is it getting started on a new project? Or perhaps it's that final 10%, like varnishing and finishing a painting. Or is sharing your art with the world a stumbling block? We all have different friction points that need attention. Talking it out can really help, so come join us as we put our heads together to explore the intricacies of our respective creative workflows. It’s time to transform friction into flow! Mentioned:

There are so many reasons to run an in-person workshop. It's a wonderful way to connect with other artists, build your confidence, generate income and promote your brand. So how do you go about it? 

From finding a space, to what to bring and how to plan, this week I am sharing all my tips. 

You will also hear the story of how I built my confidence in this area over the past ten years through little steps of bravery. My hope is that you will realise that you can do this too. It doesn't have to be big and scary. All you need to do is start small and start now!

There's nothing quite like a trip away, to get you thinking and re-evaluating. That's just what happened when we visited artist and entrepreneur, Doulene Walker, in Bali last month (see last weeks podcast). The experience inspired us to think bigger and go ALL IN on running our business (and our home) together. Heads up, we talk about housework nearly as much as painting in this episode! It's an interesting conversation about shifting roles and new possibilities. Enjoy! 

Instagram: the O.G. photo-sharing social media platform. It was once so beloved by artists, photographers, and day-to-day photo sharers. But now, is it still considered the best social media platform for artists? We are going to dive deep into whether or not that is still the case, or if artists (and other creatives) should be turning towards other platforms such as Twitter, YouTube, Pinterest, or maybe even the app that’s once again in the spotlight—Vero.

Figuring out which place to share your creations and content with the world can be challenging. So in today’s episode, we are going to compare a handful of the options that are available.

A few things to consider while listening as well as when you are making platform decisions:

• Determining which platform to invest time in, depends on a number of factors.
• What is your purpose for being on the app?
• Where is your community or audience?
• Which apps do you enjoy being on and are willing to invest time in?
• Which app plays to your strengths?

When it comes to sending your art out into the world, fear can stop you in your tracks. The fear that your work isn't up to scratch. The worry that you're not a 'real' artist. This week we share our experiences with fear. We want you to know that we feel it too. Every single day. But we're not letting it be the boss and you shouldn't either! 

In today's podcast, we chat about what it's been like to create our first art challenge and share a few tips and insights from behind the scenes. It hasn't exactly been plain sailing but creative life rarely is. My goodness though, it feels good to push through and be at the stage where we can say that the challenge is live.

So what does it take to run an art challenge? How do you choose a theme? Where is the best place to host it? How long should it be and how do you get the word out? Just a few of the questions we’ll be answering as we chat about our experience so far.

And if you want to check out our challenge, it is called the Creative Elements Challenge and it’s running from the 10-14 February. It’s a five-part free video series and you can access here. The videos will be available to view until 2 March 2021.

We hope you enjoy the challenge and you also enjoy hearing about the challenge of creating our first challenge!

The art is piling up, but now what? How do you get your work seen and sold? There are quite a few options - especially in the online space. You could use a print on demand service, join an online art gallery, create an Etsy shop or build your own website. All have their pros and cons but which option is right for you? This week we chat about the different ways you can sell your art online and how it depends on where you are in your art journey and how hands-on you want to be. We also talk about the role of social media in getting traffic to your art and the elements of a good product listing. If you are just getting started with selling your art, grab a cup of tea and get cosy. This 40-minute episode is a helpful guide to the many possibilities out there!

My guest today is Australian artist, Alexandra Plim. Alexandra paints energetic and intuitive abstract landscapes from her home studio in the inner west of Sydney.

She describes her creative journey as a ‘Very DIY Situation’. From having an open studio when she didn’t actually have a studio to setting up her website one-handed while breastfeeding - this is an inspirational story about letting go of perfection, embracing the mess and making things happen for yourself!

When Kiala Givehand launched her first online poetry course, one student signed up. While it wasn’t the result she was hoping for, the relationship she built with that student shaped what was to come.

Since then, Kiala has created over 100 courses and helped women all over the world to find what makes them happy.

Her work is the culmination of many passions including poetry, book-binding, teaching and intuitive painting.

In this episode, Kiala talks about spirituality, being multi-passionate and the importance of nurturing the relationships you already have.

Kiala’s story shows that it is possible to build a creative business that also feeds your soul. I hope you enjoy the conversation!

What is your biggest fear as an artist? Is it not making enough money or maybe you are worried that you will never create work that you are truly proud of. Recently, I asked this question over on Instagram and let's just say the fears came flying in! So this week and next week (yep we are doing another 2 part series), we thought we'd tackle a few of them head on. 

In today's episode you will hear us talk about …

The fear of not being good enough (that all encompassing fear that we all have)

The fear of being thought of as a fraud due to no formal training 

The fear of not being taken seriously as an artist by friends or family

Three big juicy fears that we've got a lot to say about. We'll be sharing our own experiences and the strategies that we use to keep going even when we feel scared and overwhelmed. We hope that at the end of this episode you feel encouraged, that you know that fear is normal and you also know that you get a say in how you respond to it!

Podcast Episode 9 - The Fear of Not Being Good Enough

Join me over on Instagram @laurahornart

This week, I chatted with Richie about how I had a bit of a wobble. Maybe we'll call it mid-year panic. Suddenly, I could feel the year slipping away with goals unmet. Specifically, I've been feeling blocked when it comes to making online classes. How much prep does one need to do and is a rebrand of my website colours really what I should be doing right now? Yep, it's an honest one. But it's not all doom and gloom, as my procrastination led me to watch a YouTube video, which helped me figure out the real issue at hand. Tune in to find out how I turned my mid-year panic into some mid-year progress. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed or just need a bit of motivation to stay on track, this episode is for you!

This is a conversation about tea that tastes like dusty flowers, hipsters on YouTube, the lost art of reading books and the wonders of bamboo clothing! It’s a humorous take on a serious topic - stress.

Over the past few months, I have been exploring different ways to reduce stress and tension in my daily life. I’ve tried meditation, journaling, reading, yoga, walking, reducing caffeine and more. Shifting the focus of my health journey from losing weight to relieving stress has had some surprising benefits.

This isn’t really an art-based episode and I actually stressed a bit about that (oops, still learning). I know that art and life are linked but sometimes I still feel the pressure to stay in a particular lane.

Having said that, one thing I know is that being an artist, business owner and spending a lot of time online increases your health risks. So with that said, I’m going to keep having these conversations and this one is particularly juicy and packed with book, podcast and video recommendations! I hope you enjoy it!

Aside from making art, one of my favourite ways to while away a few hours is to work on my website. Yep I am a website geek. Give me all the colours, font combinations and cool little features. To be honest, I spend a bit too much time tweaking my website when I should be doing other things but this week I get to shamelessly talk websites! 

Now I know there are artists that sell directly off Instagram or Etsy and that can work really well but I am a fan of having your own little bit of cyberspace. Since I got serious about my website, I have seen huge growth in my business. More art sales, more online class sign-ups, more workshop participants, more podcast downloads and so on. 

The biggest change for me was when I started thinking of my website as the hub of the business, not just an add-on because I felt like I 'should' have a website.

Now while I could talk for hours about the visual and tech side of a website, this episode is more about getting to the core of your website's purpose. The part that so often gets overlooked! So grab a cup of tea and settle in, I'm sharing my top 7 tips for a website that works!

I wasn’t sure what to call this week’s episode as we chat about so many things. Yoga, social anxiety, the progress I have been making on my paintings, accounting, books, Netflix - it’s a mixed bag!

Then it came to me. While I haven’t been painting as much lately, my life has felt rich with creativity. I’ve had time to discover new passions and I have finally learned how to take breaks and tackle tasks in short bursts.

Could it be that I am living a well rounded creative life and finding balance in this busy world?

It’s not perfect but it feels like I am on the right path. Or at least the right path for now!

Richie and I muse on this in today’s episode and share plenty of laughs along the way. We hope the episode provides inspiration for your own multi-faceted creative life!

Not all decisions can be made with logic or business in mind. Today, Richie and I chat about the importance of "what the heck moments"—those times when we follow a creative instinct, even though it may not make sense on paper. We share examples from our own creative journey, discussing how embracing these impulses can bring deeper fulfillment, growth, and unexpected opportunities. From taking your own approach to social media, choosing promotional opportunities that align with your values, to self-publishing a book rather than going the traditional route, this episode is all about trusting your intuition and why it matters in your creative life.

Life sure is hectic, isn’t it?? Between work, hobbies, children, and all of the other aspects that make up life as a whole, it can be hard to maintain consistency, clarity, and structure.

In this podcast episode, you will hear how I schedule my week as an artist, business owner, and parent. The goal here is to give you some simple tips and ideas that you can incorporate into your daily, weekly, and monthly routines to make staying on top of your many tasks as easy as possible.

This routine reflects my current focus on creating art classes, but the ideas can be applied to any creative pursuit.

Some key points that we are going to focus on in our discussion today will be:

• Choosing projects that are joyful for you but also have some deadlines. Committing to a class, challenge, or group show that creatively excites you is a great way to put this into action.
• Planning, planning, planning! Figuring out a detailed, yet somewhat flexible, daily, weekly and monthly plan should make your days flow much smoother. When you have an idea of what each day is going to look like, it makes it easier to maintain a balance between work and personal tasks.
• Setting a weekly routine will be a game-changer! But what can a productive weekly schedule for an artist/business owner/parent look like?

Clear purpose, boundaries, and prioritization are going to be crucial takeaways to listen for in our discussion as well.

If you want to get back on track and hear some beneficial tips to make your daily life a bit easier to manage, make sure to listen to the podcast episode here!

Hope you enjoy!

I’ve been itching to share this conversation! Today is the first interview in the ‘Redefining Success Series’ and I am chatting with Atlanta-based artist, Christina Kwan.

Christina is well known for her abstract and floral works on paper as well as her large-scale murals. She has recently reached the point where art is her main career.

In the episode, she talks about the winding road to becoming an artist, wanting to give up many times and how her view of success has changed since becoming a mother.

This is a conversation about losing and finding yourself again and again. It’s about acceptance and letting go or as Christina’s says in the interview, it’s about something and nothing. You’ll have to tune in to find out more!

Is it better to have a studio at home or a studio offsite? A question that comes up again and again in the art community.

I’ve always been in the home studio camp but that all changed 3 months ago! With the business growing and it becoming harder and harder to maintain boundaries between work and home, Richie and I took the plunge and leased a creative space together.

Join us as we chat about how it happened, what we were looking for in a studio space and the pros and cons based on our experience so far.

While it is pretty obvious that we are both ecstatic about this new development, we do want to say that for every artist it is different. What works for us might not work for you. The most important thing is that YOU are happy in the place that YOU create. That is truly all that matters!

The ebb and flow of creativity is inevitable. There will be times when we are itching to paint and know exactly what we want to do, and there will be times when turning up feels hard. In this episode, I answer your questions on this topic and share the ways I stay inspired, build compassion for quieter periods, honour my own rhythms, and continue seeking self-discovery and self-expression, even in small acts. From finding colour palettes to compiling sketchbook prompts, tidying up the studio, and more, there are myriad ways to respect and support our creativity, no matter the season.

Richie and I hope you enjoy this short and sweet season finale. We'll be taking a little break and returning in late July with a new season filled with fresh insights and inspiration.

I’ve been quiet on social media lately but I have been working on something really important - making art fun again! The studio has had a makeover, new art supplies have been ordered and ALL my sketchbooks are out!! Plus, Richie and I have been having some BIG ol' chats about the future direction of the podcast and art biz in general.

With a new year coming, it’s time for a change. In this week’s episode, we look back on the last year and talk about the changes we are making to bring more creativity and fun into our lives as we head into 2022. This includes a change in the way that we approach the podcast.

As it’s the last episode of the year, we also want to thank you for your support and wish you a happy festive season!

This week, Richie and I answer your questions. You’ll hear personal stories including how we met, whether we always wanted children and what’s been the hardest part of our journey so far. We also share business tips on areas such as Facebook advertising and getting started with teaching.

One thing you’ll notice is that things are always changing. Being a creative couple is a juggling act that requires plenty of communication and adjustment!

There are times when we focus on creative work and feel like we are not being good parents and then there are times when we are very hands-on with our family but lack creative purpose.

It’s not all doom and gloom though! We chat about how we have learned to deal with this ebb and flow and what we are loving in this current phase.

We hope that the episode is informative and encouraging!

This week we are talking about failure. Something Richie and I have become very familiar with! It’s easy to look at a person’s Instagram feed or website and feel like they have it all figured out but there’s a lot you don’t see.

Over the years we have messed so many things up and questioned whether we are cut out for creative biz at all.

If you feel like you are fumbling at the moment, we want you to know that you are not alone. We also want you to know that there is magic in those failures even if it is hard to see that right now.

So with that said, join us as we share the failures we have had so far in our art business. From Richie’s reluctance to spend money on podcasting equipment right through to Laura’s questionable skills at packing a car for an art market - this conversation spans all sorts. There are failures in podcasting, filming, printing, painting, framing, accounting and more!

We hope that you find it encouraging and relatable. There’s a lot of laughs in this one! I don’t know how many times I’ve said to Richie in the midst of a failure ‘If I don’t laugh, I’ll cry’. Never thought that would be one of my art biz mantras but it seems to help!

What’s harder, making art or marketing it? For many artists, it’s the latter. 

Hands up if you have some artwork sitting around that could be listed for sale? If you answered yes, stay tuned. In today’s episode I’m sharing five specific strategies for selling art online. 

Marketing doesn’t have to be icky, with the right strategy you can increase your sales while also cultivating your creative practice. Take a Flash Sale, for example, this type of sale can provide income during a slow period, reducing your stress so you can focus on a new project. Or how about a Painting a Day Sale? Perfect for generating excitement on your social media channels and fostering discipline in your work. 

The key is to find the marketing strategy that works best for you. You don’t need to do all the things. In fact, my challenge for you, is to pick a strategy, open up your planner and make a commitment to trying one of these strategies. Just one for now. Do one and do it well!

With the end of the year fast approaching, this week I felt the urge to talk about planning! And in particular, how I use Trello to get organised and stay focused throughout the year.  Trello is a tool that I often get asked questions about so if you are curious about what it is and how you could make use of it in 2021, stay tuned.

For anyone that doesn’t know what Trello is, it’s an online organisational tool that you can download for free here. While I do my best to explain it in this podcast episode, I’ve also, with Richie’s help, created a free video so you can get a visual and see how I have my Trello set up.

In this episode, Richie and I also talk about our general approach to planning. This includes the changes we have made as our art business has grown, getting to grips with numbers and building flexibility and freedom into our schedules.

Whether you use Trello or another planning method, this episode is packed with tips and ideas to help you get excited and ready for the year ahead.

So grab a cup of tea and make yourself comfortable. It’s time to do some planning!

Have you ever wondered what it is like to work with your partner? A year ago Richie and I pooled our talents in art and videography and started making online classes. We didn't know where it would go but we both knew in our hearts that if we didn't try we'd regret it. A year on and we're still here! 

It wasn't always easy though. We dropped the ball and created many things that ended up on the scrapheap. 

But something cool happened. The more mistakes we made, the better we got at picking ourselves up and using our failures to make even better work and to improve our relationship. 

As Richie so eloquently puts it 'We've been in the muck together, come out the other side and we are still going strong'!

This week we are celebrating with a special podcast episode - the real deal on working together! Things like how it has affected our relationship, what the kids think about the business, who has the most annoying habits and what keeps us coming back for more!

We are also having a big sale on all of our online art classes! Use the coupon code ARTPARTY at checkout to save 30% on ALL classes.  Coupon expires on Sunday, May 5th 2019, 12:00 am ACST (Australian Central Standard Time). 

Thank you for all your encouragement, we wouldn't be here without you!

If you are anything like us you probably began the year with some big intentions. But what happens a month or two later? All too often, that feeling of excitement turns into overwhelm. 

So what do you do? First of all, take a deep breath and clear your head. Then, when you are ready, it's time to get honest and take a good look at your creative business, art practice and personal life. If you don't know where to start, don't worry, we've got three questions to help you let go of what you can, park what you need and do what you love!

Are you missing out on the benefits of Pinterest? In the art world, Pinterest often flies under the radar compared to Instagram, yet it's a powerhouse for art-related content. Over half of my social media website traffic comes from Pinterest, where people discover my art, podcasts, classes, YouTube channel, and blog posts. And yet, I spend as little as a few days a year on my Pinterest strategy. What's my secret? Tune in to find out. Plus, you'll gain tips on leveraging Pinterest to curate inspiration and develop a stronger understanding of your artistic style. This episode is set up as a mini-training with practical information you can implement today!

Recently, I made a delightful discovery: artists are still blogging! I am not sure why I thought the blogging scene was all but forgotten, but it's not. It's a little different now, especially with so many social media platforms to contend with. However, many artists are still blogging in various ways—on their own websites, on Substack, via email newsletters, and more. In this episode, I share my own experience and discuss things to consider when choosing your approach, from SEO to community building, personal satisfaction, and fitting it all in. If you have a blog or are thinking of starting one, this episode is a must!

In this week’s episode, I am sharing a few posts and podcast episodes from other artists that have helped me to get back on track after a bit of a slump in my creative practice. They say a problem shared is a problem halved and I certainly have to agree with that. I’ve been taking a lot of comfort from other artists in the community and I wanted to share some of that comfort and support with you.

Richie and I also reflect on this season of the podcast and talk about the positives that have come out of 2021 along with our plans for the future.

We hope you enjoy the episode. This is the last episode of the season. We will be back in early May!

With social media becoming increasingly fast-paced and fewer photographs of artwork showing up, my appreciation for a good old book filled with art and creativity has grown! In this episode, I talk about a new series I’m sharing on YouTube where I explore my favorite creative books across different categories. Richie and I chat about how these books inspire my art practice, and I also open up about recent challenges with my online class platform. These struggles have deepened my appreciation for creativity, which leads us to discuss the importance of staying open to inspiration, chasing dreams, and thinking about the legacy we leave behind.

How long should you persist with a creative pursuit, art style, or medium if you are not enjoying it? This episode could also have been titled: I really want to love acrylics, but I am not sure if I do? It's a personal conversation about the confusion I sometimes experience when choosing materials and processes as a mixed-media artist, but of course, it goes beyond this! If you've ever found yourself questioning whether you're on the right path creatively, or if you simply seek some encouragement in navigating your own creative decisions, this episode offers a soothing balm for your soul. I hope you enjoy the discussion!

There is a lot of pressure on artists to develop one strong style, but is this the only way? This week, Richie and I discuss my personal experience with having multiple art styles and share some of the benefits of embracing variety in your work. We explore how casting a wider creative net can be advantageous and talk about how, over time, your creative voice becomes stronger, making your work identifiable even as you move through different subjects and mediums. We hope this episode provides encouragement to find the balance between consistency and experimentation that works for you and your art goals.

On this podcast, we love to talk about living a healthy creative life. But, how does it play out in reality? From getting enough sleep to finding ways to cope with jealousy when scrolling through Instagram. This week we put our habits under the spotlight. 

You have probably heard the phrase 'Done is Better than Perfect'. We use it all the time in our art business. It helps us to keep the momentum going and ultimately to get stuff done. But, and it is a big but. We also believe that putting in extra effort to make your work stand out from the crowd is super important. 

So how do you know when to adopt done is better than perfect or when to go the extra mile? Tune in to find out how it goes down in our art business. From what tasks fit into each camp to who is the more annoying perfectionist, we really enjoyed this episode and hope you do too!

This week Richie and I are celebrating a special milestone - one year of podcasting! We had grand plans for a fancy episode but when the time rolled around we were up to our eyeballs in exhibition prep! 

If you’ve ever had an exhibition, you probably know what I am talking about. Frantically finishing things, painting edges, varnishing, trying to think of titles, printing labels and so on.  

To be honest, we got so swept up in exhibition madness, this podcast almost didn’t happen at all! It was only at 9pm, the night before my SALA exhibition installation that we managed to turn the microphones on and have a conversation. Needless to say, we were a bit tired but what better time to talk about exhibitions than when you are right in the thick of it! 

We hope that you enjoy the conversation and that it might just be the gentle nudge you need to fill out that exhibition application form!

You’ll hear how Richie is incorporating an idea from each interview into his daily routine.

Meanwhile, I talk about creating simple self-care habits, shifting my mindset in relation to marketing and feeling ready to try something new in my art.

We hope you enjoy the recap and that you enjoyed the season! Richie and I will be taking a short break and returning on October 20 which is actually three weeks time, not two weeks as I mentioned in the episode.

Until then, stay well and creative!

There is no doubt about it, some painting days are hard. It's crushing to look at a painting at the end of a session, only to wish that you hadn't touched it at all. Then there are the days when you can't even get motivated to pick up a paintbrush. So how do you get out of a painting funk? Join me this week as I chat about my own experiences and share what has been helping me to get my painting mojo back! 

Today I am joined by abstract artist, Betty Krause. Betty started painting when she turned 50 and has built up a thriving art business in a short space of time. How did she do it?

Well, it started with a very deliberate decision to put her mixed media art supplies away and focus on becoming an abstract artist.

In this episode, Betty talks about removing distractions, hanging in there as you find your art style and using platforms such as Instagram and YouTube to connect and grow your audience.

For anyone that has ever felt like it is too late to get started, I encourage you to take a listen to Betty’s inspirational story.

This week I have the most incredible guest. I am chatting with Carrie Schmitt! 

Carrie paints gorgeous expressive floral paintings. If you haven't seen her work, be sure to check it out over on Instagram (@carrieschmitt). 

Without saying too much (trust me it is better if you hear it from Carrie), this is a conversation about being brave enough to listen to your intuition even in the darkest of times. Carrie talks about how moments of struggle while hard are also ripe with inspiration, information and possibilities for change.

She also shares how tapping into positive memories from her past has helped her and provided inspiration for many creative projects.

There is so much wisdom in this conversation and one thing I particularly took away from it is the relationship that Carrie has with her creativity and the way that she treats it with nothing but respect, kindness and love.

This week we are continuing our conversation about fear. Last week we tackled creative fears and this time we are diving into the business side of things. Top of our list is the fear of not making enough money. Why is it so hard to talk about money? Or more to the point be honest about money and how important it is? 

It was only recently that Richie confided in me that he was seriously worried that he might have to go back to a regular full-time job. That maybe we were kidding ourselves with this whole creative couple concept. As it turned out my husband’s fear was the wake up call we needed to tackle one of our other fears - the fear of not being productive enough. We had to really look at whether that fear has showed up to teach us a few lessons and well, you’ve probably guessed but it had! 

Finally we chat about the fear of not being professional enough and Richie reminds me yet again that I can actually call myself a professional artist. Saying I am artist is hard enough but now he has me saying I am a professional artist! 

We hope by sharing our experiences of fear you will feel more empowered to not only talk about fear but also take positive action and ultimately become less fearful about fear itself!

Why are some artists so popular? And what about those artists that work really hard doing all the things (posting on social media, sending out newsletters, creating tutorials, exhibiting in galleries …) but barely see any growth in their audience year after year?

That’s what we are chatting about this week. To help us answer this question, Richie and I took a look at who we follow on Instagram and why. What we noticed was that there are many different ways to stand out.

From gimmicks to awe-inspiring talent, join us as we chat about what can make a difference when you are trying to be seen in a very crowded space.

We also talk about how much time it can take to get attention and whether it is even worth it? Plus we hatch a plan to interview artists that are achieving success with smaller audiences and with less focus on social media. Stay tuned for that!

And it wouldn’t be an art podcast without talking about our favourite supplies and paint brands!

I hope you enjoy the conversation and if you haven't listened to Part 1, make sure you check out last week's episode.

This week, I am thrilled to welcome artist, Ange Miller, to the podcast!

Ange hosts in-person workshops, runs two Instagram accounts, provides one-on-one coaching and has recently launched an online training portal called the Art Flow Sessions. She is also mother to four kids under the age of 13!

You might be asking, how does she do it? I know I was and without giving too much away, I can tell you that it involves both grit and grace. This is a story about hard work and being brave enough to listen to the cry of your heart even when you are not sure where it might take you.

Ange's work truly is the culmination of decades of digging in deep and this week I am delighted to be able to share her journey with you.

In this episode, Ange talks about:

• Juggling the many hats that come with being an artist and mum of four.
• Letting go of the pressure associated with a traditional art school education. 
• Focusing on creative confidence and teaching this approach to B.A. degree students for 10 years.
• Falling in love with alcohol inks and pushing their boundaries through extensive play.
• Collaborating with fashion label, Mimco.
• Doing her best work yet - empowering artists through her Chrysalis Coaching and Art Flow Online Training Sessions.

To find out more about Ange's work and her beautiful offerings, head to:

Who doesn’t like chatting about art supplies? Okay, maybe it isn’t Richie’s favourite thing but it is mine. I absolutely love hearing about what artists use right down to the little details - the size of their brushes, preferred substrates, go-to colours, homemade tools - I want to know it all! Are you with me on this? I hope so, as this week I am running through my mixed media artist toolkit.

We did an episode like this a while ago but it felt like it was time for an update! So join us as I chat about my latest loves. From the paints that make me swoon right through to the supplies that make Richie sparkle. Haha, all will be explained in the episode!

I also answer a few commonly asked questions including what tape I use on my watercolour paintings and how I get those pesky paint pens to work!

I hope you enjoy the conversation (hopefully more than Richie did) and if you check out the Supply List for my latest online class, Modern Mixed Media you can all the details on the items mentioned in this episode.

When you stop making art in your studio because the mess is giving you bad vibes, there’s a good chance it needs more than a tidy up! 

That was the case for my studio and last weekend it got the treatment. We painted, cleaned, de-cluttered and re-organised the entire space!

Join us this week as we share the ins and outs of what we did including all the nifty storage ideas that are helping us to make the most of what is a fairly small room. 

And if you want to see what it looks like, head over to YouTube where you can see a video tour. You will also find links for the items we mentioned and a summary of all the tips!

If you need a bit of motivation to reinvigorate your creative space, this is the episode for you!

Branding! What's that got to do with being an artist? Well, in this day and age, it is often the difference between struggling or thriving as an artist. In other words, it's super important!  

Successful artists have a strong sense of who they are and what they offer. This clarity and confidence is reflected in everything that they do. From how they put together an exhibition to the way they share their work online.  

Building a brand is so much more than creating a logo, or setting up a website - your brand is the culmination of how people feel about you and what you bring to the world. It's emotional and powerful! 

The more you understand your brand, the easier it is to connect with your ideal customers and ultimately grow your creative business.  In fact, I would go as far as to say that investing time and energy into branding has been the single most important business decision that I have made in the past 12 months. 

Yep, I am BIG on BRANDING and I think you should be too! In fact, in this episode I am sharing 7 questions to help you build your brand as an artist. 

And to make it easier for you, I have created a free workbook with the questions and plenty of space for you to put your answers.

Leana Fischer discovered her love of painting in 2013 when she left her job as an architect and moved from Virginia to Arkansas. While Leana was in-between jobs she had a bit of time or as Leana calls it ‘white space’. She broke out her watercolour paints and quickly realised that this was what she really wanted to do.

In 2014 she opened her online shop (May We Fly). Little by little, one painting at a time, it slowly became her full-time career.

In this episode, Leana talks about building skills through rigorous practice, creating breakthrough products, setting up multiple income streams and building a small and faithful audience.

If you are thinking about starting an art business or you are in the early stages of your career, this is such a helpful conversation!

I'll just make a quick video for Instagram. It'll be easy. 5 hours later and with much cursing, I had nothing. Well actually, I did have some footage of the back of my head and some interesting shadows!

If this sounds all too familiar, stay tuned! This week, Richie is taking over the mic and sharing his skills and knowledge as a videographer. Don’t worry though, it’s not super techy!

This is the Keep it Simple approach to making a time-lapse video. Richie takes you through every step including setting up your equipment, finding good light, taking high-quality footage and even how to edit the video once you are done.

Speaking of video, Richie has also created a little video to accompany this podcast so you can really see what is going on. The video is linked in the show notes.

Even if you have been painting for years, a new canvas or series can be daunting. This week, Richie and I chat about getting started. This includes surface preparation, studio-set-up and facing the blank canvas (or in my case, wooden boards).

While we share tips and ideas for getting prepared and setting up your space, we also talk about the value of jumping right in. Sometimes, the most important thing is that you splash paint and lay down some marks!

Plus, we reflect back on last week’s conversation about self-care and stress.

We hope you enjoy the conversation and it encourages you to make a start on a new piece or series of work without getting too bogged down in all the details!

So how do you make money as an artist? These days there are so many options. Original work, prints, lifestyle products, workshops, retreats, online classes, ebooks ... Join us this week as we talk about what income streams we use now and which ones we've let go of and why. Profitability certainly plays a big part but there's more to this conversation! Tune in to hear our thoughts on the many ways to make a living as an artist.  

This week, we're answering a listener question about how to transition from your sketchbook to a canvas or alternative substrate. This topic is perfectly timed, as I've been in a sketchbook phase myself and am beginning to take the leap out. Join Richie and me as we discuss signs that you're ready, practical strategies to make the transition easier, ideas for setting up your space, and the importance of respecting cycles and revisiting sketchbooks as needed. It's an informative conversation about how to grow and develop your work.

How do you know when to leave your day job, and what happens when you take that giant leap? From the joy of new-found freedom to the challenge of establishing routines and making boundaries. This week's podcast is jam-packed with lessons learned and tips for navigating this transition. 

This week we have a special episode. We are going back and revisiting the very first artist interviews that I ever did. So that means you’ll be hearing from Andrea Soos, Ange Miller and Wendy Solganik.

What Richie and I decided to do was to take a listen to these episodes and find our favourite parts which was actually incredibly hard because there are so many good bits! But we have chosen a few snippets and we are sharing them in the one episode today. We hope that they will inspire you and encourage you to listen or re-listen to the episodes to hear more.

As the days get colder here in Australia, all I want to do is snuggle up, read books and bake cakes. Not a bad thing, except ... I have an art business to run! I posted about it recently on Instagram and well, let's just say, I am not alone. So what do you do when your energy levels are low? How do you navigate the ebb and flow of creative life, get past slumps and make the most of the times when you are at your best?

This week we are sharing our favourite strategies. Things like setting a minimum time that you have to show up for, matching tasks to your mood, having a daily focus and learning how to say a 'nice no'. Richie also shares what he has been up to now that he's been let off the hook on the house cleaning side of things. And I am reminded yet again of the restorative benefits of getting away from the day-to-day and enjoying an artist date. 

We hope that you enjoy the conversation and it provides you with some practical ideas to get you through whatever season you find yourself in!

Are you surrounded by unfinished paintings? Is the situation causing you stress? If you answered yes, stay tuned. In this episode, I am sharing tips and ideas to bring more closure and completion to your art practice.

First up, I want to say - this is not about perfection. Quite the opposite. You’ll hear me talking about stopping at the 80% mark, turning the canvas upside down, using time limits, breaking the rules of composition and more!

Plus there’s the usual chit chat about what is going down this week. I’m trying out a stronger stance on Instagram Direct Messages while Richie is getting excited to film more lessons for our new online class, Modern Mixed Media.

This episode we are responding to listener questions. We answer a few quick ones and then settle in for a conversation about making your own art prints. Digitizing and printing your art is technical, time-consuming and requires a significant investment in equipment and materials. BUT it is also a fantastic way for getting your art out into the world and can open the door to exciting opportunities. Join us this week as we talk about the process, the pros and the cons of printing. 

There are many ways to improve a creative space and make it feel like home. This week, Richie and I reflect back on the past year in our beloved art cottage and share the favorite updates and tweaks we've made to the space. We talk about everything from furniture, lighting, and decorating to our most recent trip to IKEA. Plus, there's plenty of laughs along the way. I'll admit I do need to stop sticking my nose into Richie's decorating! It's a fun one, but also a special conversation that goes beyond having an Instagram-worthy studio space, and instead focuses on finding space wherever you can that allows you to express your uniqueness. We hope you enjoy the conversation!

Raising children while running a creative business is not easy. It's a constant juggle. We haven't got it all figured out but we have learned a few things along the way. So grab a cup of tea and settle in. It's time to let go of the guilt, ease the overwhelm and acknowledge the amazing work you are doing. 

Do you set intentions for the year ahead? I love to take a bit of time to dream and visualise what I want for my creative life. Richie is more of a take each day as it comes type so this process is quite new for him!

In this episode, we talk about how we want to feel in 2020, what our word for the year is and how we are going to integrate it into our day-to -day life.

We also share our biggest stumbling blocks. From dealing with our ego to being too passive and waiting for things to happen.

It's a raw and honest conversation but there are also a lot of laughs along the way. We hope you enjoy it and that it encourages you to take some time to explore your own desires for 2020.

If you often make the excuse that you don’t have enough time to make art, you are going to love this episode. I say that because my guest today, Inga Buive, has mastered the art of painting while her son naps!

Originally from Lithuania, Inga moved to the UK with her husband five years ago. With a background in graphic design, she found work in an e-learning company and still works in this same company full-time. Two years ago Inga had a baby boy and it was while on maternity leave that she finally had the courage to start painting and sharing her work online.

In this conversation, Inga talks about making art in short bursts, letting go of the pressure to find your style and the ins and outs of her favourite watercolour supplies.

If you want to bring more fun and less fear into your creative practice, I encourage you to take a listen.

Sometimes being an artist is hard. This week, in my first solo episode, I talk about the ups and downs of creative life and share a message of support to artists that are feeling discouraged or weary.

It’s a short episode but it’s enough. In many ways, this sentiment sums up what this episode is all about. Being gentler with yourself, letting go of the endless quest for more and trusting in your own creative path. I hope you find comfort and encouragement in the episode.

Today is Part 2 in our conversation about cultivating a healthy creative practice. Last week we talked about the work that goes on outside of the studio. This week we are diving into the juicy art-making side of things. 

In this episode we chat about ...

Taking responsibility for your practice.
Establishing rituals for starting and finishing.
Using challenges and parameters to stretch your ideas further.
Scheduling and batching work to make the most of your time.
Using repetition to improve your skills.
Accepting and valuing ALL of your work.

We hope that you find the conversation interesting and that it gives you some ideas for your next studio session!!!

Podcast Episode 30 - Tips for Organising Your Studio

We know that engagement is the holy grail of Instagram but how do you encourage more interaction on your account? Do you ask a question on every post? That seems a bit much. What about posting more video? Or maybe it’s time to master the fancy flat-lay?

This week we ponder it all and take a look at the most engaging posts we’ve had on @laurahornart over the past two years.

How do you cultivate a healthy creative practice? It's a big topic, so big that we are devoting two episodes to it! 

In Part 1 we are chatting about the creative magic that happens outside the studio. The work that you do that often doesn't feel like work but plays an important role in developing your artistic style. Whether you are visiting an exhibition, taking a hike or even browsing through local shops, one of the great things about being an artist is that we get to call it 'research'. So grab a cup of tea and get inspired. By the end of this podcast we hope that you have several ideas for how to bring more research into your arts practice. Next week we will be continuing this conversation and looking at the work that happens in the studio - the juicy art-making side of things. Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss Part 2!

Today we are in our new studio space. Wow! There's still a lot of organising to do but I am loving the process of making it feel like home.

Meanwhile, Richie has been watching me bring in all my art supplies and wondering if there could possibly be any more!

Join us as we chat about the transition and I explain to Richie why as a mixed media artist I DO need all of these things!

This week, Richie and I discuss how my sketchbooks came to the rescue, providing comfort after a challenging week of admin. This leads us to explore the many ways sketchbooks can benefit artists. Whether for observation, experimentation, therapy, inspiration gathering, or colour palette organisation, sketchbooks offer incredible versatility. We chat about approaches used by artists like Matisse and Frida Kahlo, and share some modern-day examples as well. Whether you’re seeking comfort or aiming to push your creative boundaries, this episode will inspire you to see your sketchbook in fresh and exciting ways.
