Live on Sundays at 2pm PST

Welcome! You’ve arrived at the latest and greatest art podcast! Art Condition will be interviewing industry experts, freelance professionals and serious hobbyists to discuss a wide variety of art related topics with a focus on the practice and the business of art, and how we can maintain mental health and well being in the face of all the challenges that artists must confront. Our hope is to expand the pool of resources and information for artists as well as inform (and entertain!) consumers and aficionados who may benefit from learning more about the inner workings of the art world and how much work it takes to make it work.

Why are personal projects important for artists? How do you create a personal art project? What does it mean to work on something you love with no expectation for it to ever make money? How do you plan a project and stay focused when there are no deadlines or external obligations? How do you find time for personal projects?
