The
January 14th 2:00 meeting of
the Senior
Artists Alliance at the Davis Library featured guest
speaker Jodi Walsh, an artist career consultant, who spoke about marketing artwork, sales and
exhibiting in the local Maryland, Virginia, and DC area.
She is an artist who
relocated to Washington, D.C. from Texas many years ago. Jodi’s talk
was very informative, useful and full of ideas about the actual business
of selling your art. The ideas were gleaned from her own program
called the 12 Step Program for Artists: The Art of Doing Business,
which is now available on DVD as well.
During
the talk, there was a lively question and answer session. Some of the
members from the 30+ people at the meeting put forth pertinent questions
and Jodi was more than happy to answer.
