In this “Crowd Faves” episode, host Stephanie Gaffney revisits three moments from solo episodes of the show, chosen by you, the audience!
The first segment delves into unhinged comments and questions from wedding guests, with Stephanie (and listeners!) sharing humorous and sometimes awkward encounters live wedding painters face, including a memorable story about a divorced couple and a request to paint someone out of a scene – you have to hear how that ended…
The second and third clips offer practical advice for artists, including actionable strategies for building a portfolio and simulating a live painting environment, such as practicing with a restricted palette and reaching out to photographers for reference images.
Finally, the third popular moment has Stephanie challenging the conventional wisdom against comparing oneself to others, suggesting that artists can learn and grow by analyzing other artists’ work and business practices to improve their own client experience and professional development. Insights useful for artists of any stripe!
