Art for fun, for myself and for money
Your art could be viewed in Bangladesh tomorrow. In fact, it might already be there!
The last 30 years have transformed the way in which artist market their art, and the way in which people consume it. These same factors have made artists out of people that never knew they had a talent lying dormant, just under the surface like a million colored paints covered by an old varnish.
Bryan Mahoney came to art much later in his life than he planned. He is a former journalist, having written for the LA Times, Glendale News-Press and Burbank Leader, among other publications. In the last three years he went from his first formal art lesson to designing commercial products and launching his own line of gifts and pop art.
In this interactive session he’ll show you how to take advantage of some simple modern tools to spread the word about your art. His attitude on art is infectious; by the end of his talk you’ll be itching to get back to the canvas, the clay, or the cow’s milk. Because yes, there is art in cheese, there is art in computer spreadsheets, there is art everywhere in life.
