Was just going thru some videos on my Youtube channel and posting on Pinterest when I came across this vid from a couple months ago. It's kind of long (and a little angry) but I think it's got a good, strong message that all artists need to hear. It's a very balls to the wall,
'you are way more valuable than some people want you to believe' talk.
...and then I layout a painting and chat
...and then I chat some more about understanding your value, knowing your worth and not allowing people to diminish you and your work.
Try not to bludgeon people afterwards.
Enjoy!

How to determine the value of your work:
 |
| A (cost of making art) Cost: Supplies pictured plus more supplies and more materials plus travel plus rent plus investments in education² times experience² PLUS B (your value as an artist) Value: ability and understanding of what you do plus vision and goals plus respect for your work x hard knocks = C A + B = C (value of work) * Add 25% increase on C every time someone tries to devalue you. |
