In this episode, I talk with Kimberly Santini about a variety of topics, including how she used Covid as a sabbatical to figure out what she really wanted from her art. We also touched on her dedication to blogging and why she continues the habit after so many artists have given up or neglected their blogs. The bulk of our conversation focused on how Kim uses Patreon to teach and build a community of artists. We discuss:  What she charges for her Patreon patron tiers. What each tier receives for their patronage. What her workflow is like. Why it’s important that what she shares on Patreon is closely aligned with what she is doing in the studio. How she differentiates the content for patrons from the content she creates for her blog, newsletter, YouTube, and social media.  ✴️ COMING UP: THE MONEY PLAN If you aren’t clear about where your money is coming from, I strongly encourage you to figure it out. It’s only with that clarity that you can plan properly for the future. I can help with that. Soon after the release of this episode I’ll be leading The Money Plan artist success workshop. Seating at the live sessions of the workshop—where you can ask questions and interact with other artist-planners—will be limited, and there will also be a replay available. But if you want to attend live, you need to get on the interest list. You can hit pause right now and go to artbizsuccess.com/moneyplan to make sure you don’t miss it. 🎧 RELATED EPISODES These episodes have teaching as a primary focus:  Making a Living as a Teaching Artist with Elizabeth St. Hilaire (ep 4) Collaborating on Your Art Business with Rebecca Crowell and Jerry McLaughlin (ep 86) Gaining Marketing Skills Quickly by Leading a Creativity Challenge with Kristen O’Neill (ep 145) The Key to Success on Social Media with Cathy Nichols (ep 154)  📖 To read more, see images, find resources mentioned, and leave a comment, visit https://artbizsuccess.com/santini-patreon ⭐️ Connect with Kim and see more of her art: https://kimberlysantini.com ⛰️ The Art Biz is recorded on the traditional land of the Cheyenne, Arapaho and Ute tribes.

Using Patreon as a Teaching Platform with Kimberly Santini (#156)

Kimberly left her job when she found herself dissatisfied and not in alignment. When she rediscovered art she found joy again. She studied art history but wasn't brave enough to call herself an artist until long after her children were born.  She paints animal portraits and landscapes among other things.   Website and paintings: https://www.kimberlysantini.com/ Instagram view paintings: https://www.instagram.com/kimsantini/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CWeWFUNMjMP/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CYJ0zv2Ol2L/
