    Description
    Far too often artists find themselves having to compromise their art and their life because they were not taught accurate up-to-date methods for dealing with business situations. Because of this lack of preparedness artists miss out on valuable opportunities, financial rewards, and access to receptive audiences. This book aims to help all artists everywhere avoid these pitfalls and get on the track to success on their own terms. Whether you are a gallery-bound artist, a conceptual artist who is not interested in selling work, an emerging artist just beginning your career, or a seasoned artist in need of a tune up, this manual is meant for you. This manual is informed by decades of experience and years of research into how to perform as a professional artist in the 21st century art world. This book is filled with easy-to-follow instructions that will help you do everything from archive your work, to start a mailing list, to write a grant, and everything else you can think of. It will even address some topics you may not think you need to know about now - but you sure will later! This is a handbook for your life as an artist. It will empower you to take your future into your own hands. For more info about this book and other GYST products visit www.gyst-ink.com
