  • What Makes an Effective Website? SHARE the WORK Day 2

    22/08/2023 Duração: 28min

    This episode is FULL and detailed. I highly highly recommend downloading the accompanying workbook. It's THOROUGH and beautiful. And join the next LIVE workshop too!    In this episode, we talk about what makes an artist's website effective -- leading to higher sales and more thoughtful engagement by your visitor, audience, and buyers.   A Creative person's website has the chance to tell a story, take the visitor on a journey, but most importantly, ELEVATE YOUR WORK.    Because you are connecting with your collectors online through a series of shiny screens and images, it is so important to connect with your audience. The passion and heart that come naturally from the artist may not translate as effortlessly online. Find a way to bring that extra passion and sincerity to your digital platforms.   Ready for more?

  • The Only Goal You Need This Summer: PLAY

    06/07/2023 Duração: 34min

    The summer months are full of extra light, energy, joy, and warmth -- they are the perfect months to focus on creativity, but more than that, creative PLAY.  In this episode, we discuss the importance of creating inspiration and energy overflow so that you can give from abundance and create work that is fulfilling in a deep and lasting way.  Creativity thrives when we give ourselves the freedom to play. The studio is your haven, your playground. Let go of expectations, rules, and limitations. Experiment with different techniques, materials, and styles.  Tip this same experimental, free-flowing, playful energy into your business as well! The most impactful offers and products I've created in my business came about because of PLAY. The ideas excited me, the challenge felt new and alive, and I found a joyful energy that made the work fully delightful.    I can't wait to see what you create in this season!    >> In this episode, I shared that Making Art Work is coming back this autumn!

  • Getting Back Into Abundance In the Studio

    22/06/2023 Duração: 34min

    There’s this thing about “big magic” that I love – but also dislike – magic (inspiration) can come to you and change your whole life and work in the most powerful and beautiful of ways, but it can also leave if you are not prepared to honor it and use it. I don’t know if it’s true or not, but it feels true right now, and it’s adding a bit of scarcity to my mindset that doesn’t need to be present.    As I choose to step into more abundance in my studio practice, there are some words of affirmation that have proven to be POWERFUL. Let me share those with you here:  I will create good work today. Inspiration lives inside of me. I can tap into it whenever and wherever.  It’s ok to create bad work.  Creative flow is easy for me to access. It’s ok to rest and come back to this idea. I know these words are simple, and that is their magic. The simplicity of these mindset shifts means they are EFFECTIVE.   If this podcast has impacted you, please rate and review this show. I would be SO thankful!   Also, please sc

  • Welcome Back to Do It For The Process

    08/06/2023 Duração: 30min

    It's been a while. Let's catch back up. Many things in my life have changed, and many are still the same. One thing that has remained the same is that creativity is deeply generous, art has the power to HEAL, and empowering other artists is deeply meaningful and powerful.    I read a poem by my new favorite poet, Andrea Gibson. Check out their work here. And read the poem I read in this podcast on their Instagram.   It is an honor to be back in this space with you!

  • Love Your Creativity Enough to VALUE IT -- My Sabbatical Year

    10/03/2022 Duração: 17min

    I'm doing something brave - scary - generous - loving - needed - luxurious - important - countercultural...  I'm RESTING. Not yet -- right now I'm diving headfirst into Making Art Work and I'm SO excited to nurture and empower the Creative Community in this way. My sabbatical will begin in 2023 and will be focused on creativity, inspiration, rest, writing, and nurturing the parts of my that have been patiently waiting for attention.   I'm so excited.    If you're feeling thirsty for inspiration and creativity, maybe this is your nudge to think about prioritizing those things just a bit.  You don't have to have a sabbatical year -- you could start by carving out 2 hours a week to nourish that part of you. Create a terrarium around your inspiration and walk in it as often as you can.  This big dream is living in you for a reason. Creativity is blooming inside of you because it has found a home there. That's an honor. Elizabeth Gilbert has a theory about inspiration being a living thing that is looking fo

    02/03/2022 Duração: 28min

    This is the third episode in the Share the Work Series and things are getting more practical by the day!   Remember, You bring the VALUE to your work.   Now we’re going to talk about all the aesthetic elements that surround your work and think through how they communicate your brand message. As the creator, you also get to create an elevated brand.  A brand is far more than a logo. It is far more than your website. It's not your icons, graphics, images, the tiny alligator on your shirt, the label inside of your coat. YOUR BRAND IS THE FEELING PEOPLE EXPERIENCE WHEN THEY COME IN CONTACT WITH YOUR WORK. And now that you know you have a brand, let’s discuss how you can refine and elevate your brand.   Learn more about Making Art Work Go to the Share the Work Videos Join our private Share the Work Community Follow @Emily_Jeffords on Instagram  Visit Emily Jeffords' fine art website
