403: What Art Collectors Are Buying Right Now (and Why)
Collectors are still buying art, and when you understand how they're choosing, everything starts to feel clearer and more aligned. If you've been showing up, creating consistently, and wondering why things feel slower or uncertain, I want you to know your effort isn't wasted and your work still has a place in the market.

402: Artists: The Real Reason Art Collectors Aren't Buying Your Art
Your art may be ready for collectors before you feel ready to ask for the sale. You've already done the brave part by creating your work and sharing it with the world. Many artists assume that if sales are slow, the answer must be another marketing tactic or a new platform to master. Yet what I often see is something deeper. The challenge is not exposure or talent but how comfortable we feel asking for the exchange and receiving the value our art creates. In this conversation, I gently walk you through five patterns I've observed in artists who want to sell their work yet unknowingly hold themselves back. When you can recognize these patterns with compassion and curiosity, you open the door to a new level of confidence in your art business. πŸ’‘ You'll Learn Discover the five selling avoidance archetypes that often prevent artists from making art sales Explore the mindset patterns that make asking for the sale feel uncomfortable Create awareness around the beliefs that may be holding you back from receiving money for your art 🎧 Tune in and give yourself the space to see your art business with fresh clarity and possibility. πŸ”— Resources Full Show Notes: schulmanart.com/402 πŸ“© Check out our FREE Masterclass "How to Sell More Art" at schulmanart.com/sellmoreart πŸ“˜ Read Artpreneur: Grab your copy + bonuses at ArtpreneurBook.com πŸ’™ Start Free: Read Chapter 1 "Choose to Believe" at SchulmanArt.com/BELIEVE πŸ“Ί Watch us on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@schulmanart πŸ“² Follow me on Instagram: @schulmanart πŸ’Ό Connect on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/schulmanart
