What does it actually take to make money as an artist—and is it worth it?

In this episode, we get into the real experience of selling art, starting with a recent pet portrait commission inspired by Rebecca’s two dogs. From there, the conversation opens up into the bigger picture: what it means to create for someone else, how commissions can challenge your process, and the pressure that comes with putting a price on your work.

We also talk honestly about galleries, art shows, and markets—the time, energy, and emotional investment they require, and whether they truly support artists in the way we hope.

As always, we come back to the idea of choice: how you choose to show up as an artist, the paths you take (or don’t), and what it means to build a creative life on your own terms.

If you’ve ever wondered how artists actually sell their work—or questioned whether it’s sustainable—this episode is for you.

When art, money, and self-worth collide.

What is the real cost of making art and how much of that cost is tied to how we see ourselves?

In this Episode, we talk about self worth, transactional value and the pressure to turn creativity into income. From trying to pay the bills with art to not feeling "good enough," this is an honest conversation about the tension between creating freely and creating to survive.

We explore what it means to make choices as an artist, whether you're actively creating your life or letting it happen to you, and the constant pull toward the "next thing." We also get into the idea of creating drama as fuel for art and whether that's helping or hurting the process.

If you have ever questioned your value, your work, or the path you're on, this conversation will hit close to home.
