In this special panel episode of the Creativity and Consciousness Podcast, I sat down with visionary artists Luke Brown, Shannon Miguela, Izzy Ivy, and Gage Kelsey during the Painting in Paradise Retreat in Bali. Together, we explore what it really takes to build a sustainable life as a professional artist, sharing personal stories, insights, and hard-won advice on navigating the creative journey. From early experiences of selling artwork to balancing creativity with business and spirituality, this conversation dives deep into the challenges and rewards of living as a full-time artist.

Topics include:

• How we each got started selling art
• Tips on making art your primary income
• Learning from mentors and the power of community
• Financial organization and the importance of documentation
• Staying authentic while building relationships and expanding opportunities
