51. How To Choose Your Learning Path As An Artist
In this episode Steph and I explore the question ’how important is art school when wanting to pursue a career as an artist?’ We talk through many of the pro’s and con’s of this question as I did not go to art school and Steph did.
What we have in common is that both of us have found huge value in who we learn from online. Join us as we explore all the different avenues that you can choose from to learn as an artist.
Some of this episodes key insights;
That learning is essential to gaining the skills and knowledge to elevate your art and career.
