    Stop Confusing Fans with Buyers — with Kate Florence (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Got a big following but no one's buying? I'm flying solo today to break down the difference between building an audience of peers and one of buyers, and why your approach to content makes all the difference when it comes to selling art online. I get into why attention doesn't equal intent, how "process content" can bring about students instead of collectors, and why clarity (not virality) is what actually sells your work. I also share the exact question I ask myself when I'm stuck on how to pres

    Does Dark Art Have a Home? — with Arne Ohlsen (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    This week Flick joins me in Copenhagen for a chat with artist Arne Ohlsen. Arne started his art practice in Australia while working as a carpenter, painting on wooden offcuts because canvas was out of reach. He gained momentum quickly, exhibited at several shows, and moved into a full-time creative practice before returning to Europe, where the work turned darker, leaning into identity, isolation, power and struggle. We talk about the real differences between making art in Australia and Europe,

    Stop Making Excuses — with Adam Baker (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Nitty Gritty is on tour with me while I move around Europe and this week I'm in London with oil painter Adam Baker. In his practice, Adam focuses on intimate, imagined snapshots of queer life and love, drawing on personal experience to build fictionalised narratives that speak to the emotional complexity of contemporary queer identity. Baker often investigates the contradictions of connection — how queer spaces can feel electric with possibility yet, simultaneously, deeply isolating. Through mer
