Listen Later

Today we chat with abstract artist Rach Jackson. Rach’s career has exploded in 2020 and she is now a prolific full time painter. We chat about how she took the leap into making her long-time dream of becoming a professional artist once she became an empty nester and how she’s sold over 200 paintings this year through retail.

  • How different stages of life bring different challenges and opportunities.
  • How a ‘fluke’ propelled her toward selling over 200 paintings via retail.
  • Pricing for retail and raising prices in line with costs.
  • Streamlining supplies and materials to save time for the painting.
  • Working with family and bringing them along on the journey
  • How a challenge that could have shut down her creativity prompted reflection and educating herself resulting in an evolution of style.
  • Advice for artists working toward making the dream a reality.
  • The myth of an overnight success!
