How to Make It as a Creative in the Modern World with Artist James Patrick

Show notes

Welcome back to the Driven Young Podcast and today we are talking all things creative and how to make it in a creative field.

Going into a creative field often has a very unclear pathway especially if you are trying to build your personal brand and reputation as an artist, designer, filmmaker etc. That is why today I am joined by James Patrick. James is a fulltime artist and has been for the past 7 years. Spending all of his time tiny detailed artworks at home or massive murals in the city, James has been able to successfully monetise his creativity and build a significant following online of over 30,000 people.

In today's episode we talk about:

Is art school worth it?

How do you make it as creative today?

How much is your creativity worth

Why people will hate no matter how good you are

How to monetise your creativity

The importance of marketing yourself

Should we be a creative first or a marketer first

And so much more....
