@@mikenoneofyourbusiness7122 Hi Mike, once again, I have seen many negative comments towards other people following the channel for no apparent reason. I have responded before that there are still plenty of people buying original artworks today (we sell ca.40-50 pieces with the gallery, and I sell personally as an artist approximately 20-25 pieces per year). As a result, I would appreciate it if you would stop being rude to people in the comments saying that art can only be a hobby and that there is no future in art. If not, I am afraid I will have to hide comments from your channel on our videos. I appreciate your understanding.
Thank you so much for this information. I wish I had seen it sooner. After watching this I feel more comfortable about trying to get my work seen and actually creating a resume when I have no experience.

Hello and thank you very much for these valuable tips. I wondered how to justify a void on a CV... I started painting from 22 to 27 years old then I stopped to devote myself to my job. During the confinement of covid 19 I was able to resume my painting. So in fact I have been painting for less than three years... How to notify this vacant time? I exhibited between 2002/2007 then back in 2022 for exhibitions... Thanks in advance and the best to you 🙏 Lucy Einna
Hi Lucy, thank you for tuning in and for a great question tackling a very common issue. I wouldn't be to worried about justifying it. It is simply your story, your life, and journey as an artist. On your resume you should share the facts as they are without having to worry about it or make some changes to your resume to justify or hide this gap. It will not harm your chances for success today. Hope this might help and wishing you all the best!
For years now I have shunned pursuing shows or any other outlet. I just work and have done so for so long I’m out of the game, so to speak. My unique situation has me able to simply work. It gets addictive . Just me and my work. My legacy who cares I died once and was brought back to life after bleeding out- blood pressure drops and you go. There is something else and it doesn’t care about all this earthly stuff we care about. But when your in this place here you got to play the game. Respect if you lack money gives you wiggle room keeps the punks off you back side. Any way I need CAI to get back in, time to come in from the cold. The other thing I’m seeing is I have to tweak the work toward high end esthetic. Always something huh. Jeez! So all of this is why I’m here and all this then helpful. If I can pull it off🤪
This was the best advice and startergy which i have understood to introduce art / simple steps but really a win win situation _ impressive _thank you 😊
Would it be safe to assume that if your "studio" was nothing more than a drawing table in a tiny apartment that an open studio day wouldn't be an option?
Bravo! Thank you for another helpful video. Kudos to you for responding to many of your subs who asked for strategies to build out their blank or modest artist resume page. You've once again demonstrated your expertise. This and your how to easily create a professional artist website are among the best and most helpful videos you've made...! Cheers and thanks again.
Fantastic tutorial... I have ordered your template and am shocked to realize I can have a decent resume today! Would this resume be included in a digital portfolio, or just on my website?
Hi Leslie, thank you so much! Yes, you can include it both on your website and at the start or end of a (digital) catalog with available works/portfolio. We'll be creating a catalog template in the foreseeable future!
If you have your work hanging in a store front or library for a couple of months but it's not part of a titled show how would you cite this on your cv?
Hi there, thank you for tuning in. The high-end art world is not a big fan of crafts. You will have to approach your craft in a very experimental manner resulting in sculptures similar to Isa Genzken's dolls to stand a chance. Nevertheless, keep doing what you enjoy the most!
Would this resume be the same as your CV with another name? Also on Artenda, which I started to subscribe to because of your excellent content on these videos I see the term “Formular” not sure if you have a video on the meaning and how to write one up? Thank you for the great videos
Excellent as always, your tutorial series that I follow and do step by step help me enormously, and your guidelines are best ever seen! Thanks so much, for each piece, it could be wonderful to make a video for us who constantly does what you said till now to explain how it would be an effective project proposal when we are applying in Artenda!
Dear Parimah, thank you for following our videos and for your kind comment. Regarding applying to artist opportunities, Artenda offers great in-depth online courses on how to apply or improve your application. We'll try to cover this topic in the foreseeable future as well, but Artenda has covered this topic terrifically, and it will be hard to match. So definitely worth considering. Wishing you all the best!
@@contemporaryartissue So many thanks for your very helpful, kind, and precise answer, I am always eager to your new videos! I go definitely to artenda course as well!🌹
Hi there, thank you for tuning in and for the Super Thanks-I appreciate it! I offer an artist resume template at www.contemporaryartissue.com/career-tools-for-artists/ including additional tips & instructions. For one-on-one coaching, I also offer an advisory report service at www.contemporaryartissue.com/product/cai-advisory-report/ Wishing you the very best!
Hi Mike, thank you for tuning in. If your art is related to mathematics-meaning it is essential for your vision or process-you could include it. If not, then simply leave this segment out of your resume. Wishing you all the best!
It wasn´t until I retired that I started painting. For over 35 years I was a Family Therapist and Consultant for Carer Teams after serving in the British Military. Would that be considered relevant ?
What is your take on digital art? It seems like digital artists are not getting the same respect in the art world. I hope one day you can also have a vlog about the digital art world.
Let's face it, we are looking at digital media all day long, 24/7 on our cell phones... thus confronting real life materiality directly in front of us is hugely seductive. Digital art is very limited as a final product compared to tactile materials or in fact, accidental occurrences between real life materials, which can't be reproduced digitally (other than making it `look like` something). In the end it's just a video screen or print out.. The virtual world is a cartoon, whereas real life is more like film. One might say the hand of the artist exhibits more "truth" comparing the same circumstance or content. The art world reflects the marketplace and artist alike, so it depends on your brand, and a collectors` desire to get the respect needed to match up to real life media (traditional materials). Good luck 😊
Hi Marjorie, thank you for tuning in and thank you for your question. Digital art is indeed a topic for a future video. I believe Cliff DaRiff made some great points when it comes to your statement/question if digital artists are getting the same respect in the art world. I would say respect, yes. Success; sometimes. As Cliff mentioned, the absence of a physical piece is crucial. Today we are being bombarded by a flood of two-dimensional images. Physical art, such as painting, drawing, and collage (sticking to the two-dimensional art forms) is a privileged medium to slow us down and call a halt to an image. We approach and experience it differently. It has a physical presence and a metaphysical weight in the matter, leaving a tangible trace of a human being. NFTs can give an artwork collectible scarcity, which is a tremendous step forward to valuing digital art. But when it comes to the experience of art, this digital scarcity of ownership does not change our experience of it. Even as a painter, art is not about creating images but about creating collectible objects with their own aura and energy. Even with conceptual art-where the artwork is the idea and not the object-they require an object to transmit this idea so the viewer can experience it. I have great respect for digital artists and admire the work of several artists strongly. But without the physical object and experiencing it in the flesh, I seem to hit an unwanted ceiling in my judgment. And as a result, my favorite artwork will never be a digital artwork. But this is of course just my personal opinion.
@@contemporaryartissue Thank you so much. I love the discussion and I always look forward to your videos. I am processing what you pointed out as I recently went back to creating traditional art from digital. It’s a different feeling.
Yes, definitely. When the time comes you have a lot of valuable exhibitions on the resume, you can reassess and drop some of the exhibitions from your resume such as online exhibitions. Wishing you all the best!
Hi Jessica, you can include it if it's remotely related to your practice. For instance, if mathematics plays an indirect role in your practice, you absolutely can. If not, you simply leave out this segment entirely. Wishing you all the best!

Hi Laurence, thank you for tuning in. Yes! It is on our (rather extensive) to do list :-) So stay tuned 🙌

As a doll artist I am unable to figure out how to land in the professional art realm. Do you have some suggestions for craft artists ?

Yes, definitely. When the time comes you have a lot of valuable exhibitions on the resume, you can reassess and drop some of the exhibitions from your resume such as online exhibitions. Wishing you all the best!
What if you have an education but not in art? Like a bachelor in math, you put it or not?
Hi Jessica, you can include it if it's remotely related to your practice. For instance, if mathematics plays an indirect role in your practice, you absolutely can. If not, you simply leave out this segment entirely. Wishing you all the best!
