41. Making money and making art w/artist KATIE SHULMAN

It's time to hear from some working artists in this Making Money + Making Art series! Today I chat with Detroit-based fibers artist, Katie Shulman. In our conversation we talk about Katie's trajectory as an artist and how she's dealt with the big questions of "How do I make a living? and how do I make my art?" She'll share the various ways she's answered these questions. She'll talk about her feelings on selling her work, her relationship to nine-to-fives, and the value of moving to an affordable city. Listen in for so much wisdom.

Come take Katie's workshop at the school: All About Rope: Transforming Line to Form on May 19th, 2022.
