Access to ALL courses produced by the Professional Artist Association
mastering the business of art
In this flagship course, you will build the strongest foundation a visual artist could hope for when making a career out of their art - even if you were starting from scratch today.
PART 1: Professionalize Your Profile
Click the arrows to see more details on the course
Objective: Talk about your art with confidence
You’ve been creating your latest art project for more than a year and still when your family asks, “What are you working on?” you don’t know what to say. Or you serendipitously meet a curator and when they turn to you and say, “What do you do?” you’re tongue-tied.
A good introduction is a concise, compelling description of you and your latest project—and is the basis for all your marketing and connecting the world with your art. It sounds so simple! But it’s not easy. If crafting those few sentences that convey who you are and what you do hasn’t been a breeze for you, you’re not alone.
In this lively workshop, Public speaking coach and author of The Artist's Guide to Grant Writing, Gigi Rosenberg, will show you how to distill years of work on a project into a memorable hook that has many uses: virtual introductions, videos, in-person meetings, grant applications, follow-up calls with the funder, bio statements, press packets, and more.
This session answers questions like:
Additional Assets:
Breakdown:
Includes 45 minute Live implementation workshop
Objective: Perfect your professional writings
Learn how to express your work and what you stand for in writing. From polishing an artist statement you (finally!) feel strong about, to making your bio memorable, to knowing what to do with your non-art background in your resume. Let the author of the book on this topic guide you, and use her fill-in-the-blanks templates for a head start.
Includes 45 minute Live implementation workshop
Objective: Polish your artist website so that it converts into leads and sales
This module boils down 20 years of website building experience into the few principles and tactics that matter most for a visual artist -- even if you are not tech-savvy at all.
You will understand how to create the two key outcomes that matter: raising your credibility, and converting visitors into subscribers or collectors.
Through this module, you will create a clear vision for an artist website that makes both you and your work shine. You can then follow the simple steps to bring that vision to life.
When you complete this module, you'll have a fully updated professional artist website you feel proud of. You won’t be shy anymore when people ask to see your art on their phone, or when submitting applications to prestigious international calls for artists.
Everything about your website will clearly state, “I am a professional artist. Here is my work. You can buy now or join my private list.”
Includes 45 minute Live implementation workshop
PART 2: Grow Your Audience ONline
Objective: Get your first 100 email subscribers then grow into the thousands
What is the #1 channel to sell art online? It’s not social media… it’s” good old email”. Email is what people with disposable income still use every day. And it allows you to build a one-on-one relationship with your followers in their private inbox.
In this module, you will learn how to build an email list like a pro. You will stop any amateur practices you may have fallen into (which sometimes are illegal without you knowing it).
You will end this module having gained your first 100 subscribers in a week, with specific strategies to multiply your growth into the thousands of subscribers. You will also have a defined frequency that works for you to connect with your private email list that includes opportunities for them to buy your work -- while making them feel special.
Includes 45 minute Live implementation workshop
Objective: Accelerate your weekly Instagram follower growth
Would you like to 10x your Instagram following? If you have been struggling to get traction, chances are you need to change the way you are using social media.
In this module, social media influencer and artist Dina Brodsky will share what steps to follow so you can get all the benefits of Instagram as a professional artist while avoiding the pitfalls of screen addiction.
After finishing this module, you’ll know how to self-audit your Instagram profile and fix what is broken. You will receive plenty of examples of great posts whose style you can model the next time you share your work.
You will also understand the specific do’s and don’ts of what makes people stop scrolling, what makes them like and comment, and how you can best take advantage of the algorithms to maximize your exposure.
Finally, you’ll be able to harness the power of networking on Instagram and create new opportunities in your art career. This module includes a “cheat sheet” of Instagram accounts you can approach to get featured to hundreds of thousands of their followers.
Includes 45 minute Live implementation workshop
PART 3: Show Your Work OFFline
Objective: Learn how to organize successful group shows with other artists you admire
Imagine you could show your work next to artists you admire who are 10 years ahead of you in their art career. Would you say yes? This module will break down in minute detail how to make that happen instead of just hoping for a lucky break.
Artist-curator Rosalind Davis has organized more than a hundred shows. In this module, she will share with you the blueprint to go from obscurity to newspaper mentions. You’ll learn not only how to book the right venue and persuade the right artists but also how to promote the show in social media and press releases for a full house opening.
Once you finish this module, you will have full confidence to level up your artist profile and show your work alongside artists who used to intimidate you. You will stop waiting to “be discovered”. You will understand how to have gallery directors, critics, and other art professionals come to meet you instead of you knocking on their door.
Apply the 4 step formula to one problem you are facing:
Includes 45 minute Live implementation workshop
Objective: Discover how to get represented by one or more galleries that sell your work
What makes the difference between loving or hating your relationship with your gallery?
And, how do you get into a gallery in the first place?
Whether you prefer to market your own work or would rather have someone else take care of it, having the right gallery representation offers you a ticket to higher sales and recognition.
In this module, multi-gallery owner Jason Horejs, author of How to Get Into a Gallery, breaks down his strategy for finding, courting, and signing your dream galleries.
Whether you don’t have gallery representation right now or you want to expand into more galleries (maybe outside your area or even your country), you will end this module with a crystal-clear roadmap of how to find and secure new galleries that sell your work. No more excuses.
Includes 45 minute Live implementation workshop
Objective: Learn how to tie it all together into a sustainable rhythm
Do you ever feel like you are stretched in 10 directions at once? Not only do you need to make new artworks, you also have to photograph them, upload the photos to social media, ship works to customers, organize shows… and of course personal and family time! How are you supposed to stay sane?
In this module, we reveal the exact loop you have become trapped in. Then we give you the tools to get out of it and plan your roadmap for the next 12 months.
As our faculty member Jason Horejs says, “An organized artist is a prolific artist.” You will finish this module with the simplest method for staying sane, becoming prolific, and advancing fast toward your goals as an artist-- without the overwhelm. This module is a grand finale that students say “brings everything together.”

get paying students online
Earn predictable monthly income by teaching art online once a week. This is the fastest way we've seen artists go from $0 to $3,000+ in 30 days or less.
Objective: Earn predictable monthly income by teaching art online once a week
Would you like to know how to get paid for your hard-earned art skills every month? And what if you could do it from home or your studio in just a couple of hours per week? Now it is possible -- thanks to online workshops.
All this is answered in step-by-step, fill-in-the-blanks detail in our newest course, “Get Paying Students Online”.
Born in response to the call for help from our alumni who suddenly lost their face-to-face workshop income because of COVID-19, this blueprint is the fastest offering we have to take you from zero to your first $3,000 in 30 days.
The results have been so fast and impressive that we now recommend all our high-end private coaching clients to start with this online workshop.
Importantly, we find that artists who try to figure this out on their own most often fail or get underwhelming results, making mistakes like first announcing a class in their newsletter or social media and hearing crickets in response.
Instead, in this bonus program, you receive proven word-for-word templates that sell, in the right order to fill your online workshops.
See what some of our students are saying about their results:
Melissa filled 2 online student cohorts in just 6 weeks for ~$3,000
Carol filled her first online workshop by facilitating Drawing+Meditation
Sally made $3,000 from her first-ever online workshops offer
Beth turned her creative journaling practice into a paid online workshop
Here are the five pillars of our A B C D E formula to get paying students online:
You also get 8 coaching call video recordings from a private mastermind, where you can learn from other students progressing through the milestones as they get results by implementing our blueprint.
