Take away some great tips from two seasoned artists who are also married and run a thriving art business.

We also discuss:•how they literally raised their kids inside their loft art studio•maintaining a practice while raising kids•a strict schedule is what allowed them to work full time and still paint•how attending events is very important, even if you're shy or introverted•how collecting art benefits galleries and artistsDiane Williams is represented by Jen Tough Gallery.Diane William's website: www.dianewilliamsart.netChuck Potter's website: www.chuckpotterart.netMembership in the Artist Alliance: ArtistAllianceMembership.com

Tough on Art is hosted by Jen Tough, an art dealer based in Santa Fe, NM and founder of the Artist Alliance. This podcast was created with emerging, re-emerging, and mid-career artists in mind. We focus on all things contemporary art, through down to earth interviews and straight forward conversations. Our mission is to make the often opaque and exclusive art world more transparent and a little less daunting.
