This session delves into why this transformation is important and how artists are becoming their own marketers and business strategists.

How the Art World Is Changing

Artists have historically relied on gatekeepers like publishers and galleries to reach audiences. In the past, these entities dictated what was produced and presented, which limited creative freedom.

Today, the power dynamics have shifted significantly. This session addresses the challenges artists face, such as mastering business skills and managing direct audience engagement.

MEET THE AUTHOR,
STEPH BLAKE

For years, I poured everything into building my business and raising my family—until I realized I lost a part of myself in the process.

I used to be deeply creative, finding joy in designing, making, and exploring new ideas.

But as life got busier, that creativity took a backseat to client work, to-do lists, and the daily demands of running a business and being a mom.

One day, I decided to slowly start creating again—just for myself.

I explored new hobbies to get a quick dopamine hit for my ADHD brain with no expectations or pressure. And everything changed.

Tapping back into creativity became a form of self-care, a reset button, and a way to feel connected to myself!

Now, through Create & Escape™, I help others rediscover that same creative freedom!
