Another terrific artist took the time to chat with me!
Fine Art Ceramist Patricia Griffin and I explored several topics in this podcast. We explored her transition to becoming a full-time artist. Her transition to opening a public space and becoming a retail shop owner. And we took a journey into her most recent and equally profound career changes. Along the way, you will hear some smart business and marketing concepts and you can easily apply them directly to your art business.
And it is all told, in this quick 45-minute podcast, with the depth and clarity I expected from this very smart and successful artist.
Head’s Up!
You MUST listen to the very end because there is a super-duper marketing tip that shows up that I hope will be the key to your future success. I may have over-used the word brilliant towards the end of the podcast, but that won’t stop me from saying one more time: This woman is BRILLIANT!
Patricia’s undeniable talent will be available for all of us to own very soon! Join her list!
But first, listen and learn.

Thank you McKenna! So enjoyed talking with you. I always learn new insights!
Back atcha! Thanks for your wisdom!
Excellent interview about an inspiring story. I resonate with Patricia’s journey on becoming an artist, studying the Artists Way, and her struggle to choose between being a seller of her arts or being the producer of her arts. It’s a tough decision, but one must be in alignment with his/her values and true calling to fully succeed on one’s own term. I am happy and grateful to learn that there is a way to live my passion and my chosen life style, and still earn money, without the hustle and bustle of making money. I like the idea of opening my website twice or four times a year for sales events, and limit to 30 days events or less. Thank You, McKenna, for sharing this podcast and the marketing tips. Mahalo! Aloha!
Glad that this resonated for you, Tina! The “pop-up” store on-line is really a great way to sell on one’s own schedule and terms. It’s surprising that more artists don’t incorporate the idea. Be safe… And aloha to you as well.
