Hi Mualcaina! If you don’t mind a vtuber I’ve been doing AA and small art business since 2019 with a lot of varied merch if your ever interested ^^
Danng! favorite one so far! Anna seems really passionate about art and dropped so much Knowledge! so dope!
Thank you for watching!
thanks for having me on Maci!! you made me feel more confident and had some really really good questions 🤩 can't wait to see who's next!
Thank you for being a part of it Anna! 🥹🫶
Came across your channel because of Sundrop Studios this morning and I've already binged 3 episodes of your Creative Confessions series and I love it!! I sell handmade pottery so it's a different category but I am so interested in hearing from other creative small business owners. Can't wait for more episodes 😊
Thank you so much for watching! 🥹 Hoping to expand to interviews outside of the print artist sphere as well!
YOU NEED TO UPGRADE YOUR PHONE 😱 lol but thank you for doing a print-related podcast! Prints are a pain to haul because they can get so heavy, but they're my best sellers too 😵💫
Once my phone runs itself into the ground, I promise 😂🤞🏼
Love hearing the print perspective! This podcast has been super encouraging since I’ve struggled getting into AAs with my style and also some of the Discord groups so I have a hard time knowing when to apply to many of the big cons. It’s taking time but I’m hoping to try some next year! Thank you for always putting out great videos Maci!! 😊
Thank you for always watching! 🥹
This is by far the best artist alley interview for me.
I'm glad you're enjoying the series!
Loved hearing about the logistics of being a print artist! It was also fun to hear about the new product line, I hope it does well! It's definitely super unique and when product at conventions is all so similar it'll be refreshing to see something so new and fun. ✨
While I’m not a print artist, it’s definitely something I wish I would’ve known before vending! Most of everything I had to figure out for myself 😅
Love it! I'm really enjoying this series! Love hearing about all the different perspectives of working in AA or even in the dealer hall.
Thank you for watching the series! 🥹
Just hopped in the car for a long drive and saw there was a new podcast, score! 😃
Perfect timing! 😆
@mualicaina when you started did you start yourself as an LLC or a DBA ?
I have wanted to move to a floating hanging display for so long but I cannot ever seem to use the correct search terms for adding those additional arms on the sides. ;_;
Professor artist alley M much appreciated for your experience and wisdom 😮💛😎🍑🌎
🙏🏼
