Mary Jo Major on Building Relationships with Interior Designers

"We all want to sell more art. Through social media. Through art galleries. Through art crawls and festivals. Through friends (and friends of friends). But if we’re honest, it’s difficult to perpetually juggle selling art with making art, not to mention continuing to prioritize relationships with our families and friends. The struggle to balance is why we love this blog so much - because it celebrates even squeezing in 5 minutes to create art. 

I’m right there with you. But not only do I understand, I also know the flip side. The side that wants to BUY your art. 

I’m a certified interior design and an artist, so I know what it’s like to try to find an audience to buy your art. But I also know what it’s like to scour Etsy, to hunt and hunt for the perfect piece to put in your client’s home before getting frustrated because you feel like there is this treasure trove of artists that you just can’t seem to tap into. 

My goal is to give you 6 ways to build real relationships with designers, inviting them to join your “fan club” and put your work in their clients’ homes." - Mary Jo Major
