San Francisco, CA, May 20, 2009 --(PR.com)-- It is tougher now than ever to sell fine art. Artists who make a living making art never have it easy, even in the best of times. We are all facing the same financial constraints. We wait longer to buy what we need or even eliminate many “wants”. Galleries are closing or struggling to hold on. Museums are selling off art works to keep the doors open. Anyone smart enough to survive will have to stay nimble to thrive when the economy rebounds.
Artists have to bail themselves out. Artist Career Training ( A.C.T.) is helping the cause with a financial program to get working artists back on track. Well known Atlanta-based artist Pat Fiorello created “Artist Money Matters – Taking Charge of your Bottom Line”. The mission is to help artists identify what may be holding them back; get clear on their current financial reality and develop a realistic plan for getting income.
“When it comes to money, people often don’t want to face reality. It’s easier to avoid looking at what’s actually going on and succumb to worry and fear. Now is the time to be responsible for taking stock and taking action to improve things and maybe even prosper. This is a “must have” business tool for artists who want to be ready for the upturn” Fiorello says.
“We are thrilled to have Pat Fiorello create and deliver this self-study program for working artists. Pat brings a unique blend of proven business and artistic skills that really add value,” says Aletta de Wal, Director of Artist Career Training. “ Pat has a rare combination of business expertise, having an M.B.A. from the Harvard Business School and over 20 years as a corporate executive. She is an accomplished professional artist, who has been selling her artwork on a full time basis for the past seven years and can relate to the challenges artists face in selling their work in any economy.”
“ In coaching artists and teaching workshops to help artists with the business side of art, I have met many artist who have wonderful work, but just are not trained in or confident about handling the financial details. Often this leads to discouragement and giving up on their dream. My aim is to eradicate the “starving artist” conversation and show people how they can live a life of their dreams and have what they need to support themselves financially,” said Fiorello. www.patfiorello.com.
