Ever feel awkward, salesy, or just plain gross when trying to sell your art? You’re not alone. In this episode of the Stop the Starving Artist podcast, I’m breaking down the top 5 reasons selling art feels “icky”—and exactly how to flip the script so it feels natural, authentic, and (dare I say)… fun.

You’ll learn:
✅ Why shame-based selling pushes people away (and what to say instead)
✅ How to use urgency and scarcity without being pushy
✅ The biggest mistake artists make when talking about their work
✅ How to sell art online without feeling like a sellout
✅ Why YOU—not just your art—is what people are really buying

With my community already crossing $135,000 in sales this year, I’m on a mission to help artists sell more art without losing their soul, joy, or authenticity.
