Book Description
The overall purpose of this book is to relay the wisdom I have gained over the years relating to making money with art. The focus will be on murals because that is the artistic path I have walked and the subject I know most about. However, this is not a book to teach you how to paint murals but rather one that can teach you how to make money with an oversized paint brush. The majority of this book can relate to anyone building any type of art business. It is my pleasure to share my strategies for gaining new customers through a variety of methods, including social media. Come with me as I share with you the mental shifts and mistakes I had to make, there were a lot of them, along the way to open myself up for success in the art industry. While all of our journeys are destined to be different, I want to help you speed up the process of reaching success and finally making a living doing what you truly love to do.

Book Description
Today we associate the Renaissance with painting, sculpture, and architecture—the “major” arts. Yet contemporaries often held the “minor” arts—gem-studded goldwork, richly embellished armor, splendid tapestries and embroideries, music, and ephemeral multi-media spectacles—in much higher esteem. Isabella d’Este, Marchesa of Mantua, was typical of the Italian nobility: she bequeathed to her children precious stone vases mounted in gold, engraved gems, ivories, and antique bronzes and marbles; her favorite ladies-in-waiting, by contrast, received mere paintings. Renaissance patrons and observers extolled finely wrought luxury artifacts for their exquisite craftsmanship and the symbolic capital of their components; paintings and sculptures in modest materials, although discussed by some literati, were of lesser consequence. This book endeavors to return to the mainstream material long marginalized as a result of historical and ideological biases of the intervening centuries. The author analyzes how luxury arts went from being lofty markers of ascendancy and discernment in the Renaissance to being dismissed as “decorative” or “minor” arts—extravagant trinkets of the rich unworthy of the status of Art. Then, by re-examining the objects themselves and their uses in their day, she shows how sumptuous creations constructed the world and taste of Renaissance women and men.
