    Feels Like an Infomercial
    They’re giving very little real advice, and mostly seem to be having a long conversation that ends up telling you how you should sign up for their $200 seminar to help you learn how to sell art online. They represent themselves as a not-for-profit supporting artists, but it doesn’t feel that way.
  • listener 9999
    Great information!!
    Thank you for the great information. Artists need marketing help.
  • makings_of_mine
    Love this show!
    I love this show! I learn something new every time I listen, but it’s almost always something I can actually apply to my business and Studio practice. Having this knowledge makes me feel more confident as an artist and businesswoman, but obtaining it in this format means that I don’t take any time away from my craft.

    Podcast by Emily Esquire on copyright for visual artists
    Thanks for this eye opening podcast. I learnt a lot and am going to work on getting my work protected right away.
  • NF Artist
    If You're An Arist, Must Listen
    Helpful advice from working artists to working artists. Practices, tools, insights into making art a real career making real money.
  • Willy bo
    Great resource for professional and emerging artists
    Daniel DiGriz speaks from experience. He draws from his own successes and toolbox as an entrepreneur and brings on to the show a very diverse group of artists, gallerists, and art industry professionals.
  • Aaron 2020
    sound quality?
    You need to get a decent microphone and place it closer when you speak.
  • workcreate
    Insightful
    Practical conversations about an under discussed topic.
  • JenBom MayDay
    My favorite type of pod
    This has what I like best about a podcast - feels like I’m sitting at dinner with two really smart people who know what they’re talking about. And they’re talking about art and money! Super interesting and a the shows feel like they’re compatible - the topics revolve around what it means to be a ’successful’ artist, which keeps an interesting thread going throughout the shows.
  • Belgin Yucelen
    Educational and Enjoyable Podcasts on Art
    Well thought questions make these interviews interesting and fun to listen to. They offer different perspectives from a variety of art-related individuals. I like listening to them.

    Sharing Art with Others
    I was one of the guests, and just want to thank the Clark Hulings Foundation and Daniel DiGriz for the insightful interview questions. He did a fantastic job extracting the key concepts of Art Cantina, why we feel art education is important and how teaching and sharing knowledge with others can be an important element to being a thriving artist.

    Insightful & practical
    In addition to being fascinating, this podcast offers its audience terrific practical information. I'm not an visual artist, but as someone who works in a "creative" field (for which I received no formal business training), I find the guests' advice to be insightful, as well as applicable to my work. Also, as a journalist, I appreciate how well the host guides the discussion, asking the right questions, and keeping the interview moving without getting in the guest's way.

    If You’re Involved with Art, This is It
    I’m host of the show, so writing a review could be considered suspect. EXCEPT, that the show is really the creation of the GUESTS, and they are STELLAR. If you’re a WORKING ARTIST, ART COLLECTOR, or ART INDUSTRY professional (restoring, storing, transporting, curating) visual art, this show is likely to meet a core need. The range of guests, depth of insights, and array of topics makes it an amazing resource.
  • Amira Rahim
    Great addition!
    My name is Amira Rahim and I’m one of the many artists that love to listen to podcasts while I work. This is a great addition to the mix and like the episodes. Short and sweet but packed with info. Can’t wait to see how it progresses.
