Episode 115: A Passion that Pays: Money, Strategy, and Creativity with Drew Steinbrecher

"Let's normalize artists being millionaires." - Kellee Wynne

Are you an artist dreaming of transforming your passion into a thriving business? Are you tired of the stereotype of the "starving artist" and ready to embrace the idea of making substantial income from your creativity? If so, you're in the right place! In this episode, Kellee has invited back Drew Steinbrecher to inspire all of you by sharing the profitable journey his art has brought him on.

From a part-time creative career to becoming one of the most popular names in gel plate printing, to now hosting some of the largest creative summits available, Drew shares his innovative approach to organizing art summits and how his passion has made him a profit beyond what he could have imagined.

Focusing on collage and gel plate printing, these summits provide a platform for artists to showcase their work and learn from industry experts. However, what was pleasantly surprising to Drew is that these summits have created communities that grow and learn together, transforming students and participants into teachers and collaborators. 

Kellee and Drew discuss that the same can be said for Kellee's creative mentoring programs, which quickly lead students and participants into paths of profit and becoming leaders in their fields. Creativity is abundant, and endless opportunities for artists and creatives who are business-focused. There is nothing more beautiful than artists and creatives learning from and supporting each other in all their pursuits. It's time to break free from limiting beliefs and embrace the idea of being well-sustained by your craft, paving the way for a more inclusive and prosperous art community.

One thing is made clear in this episode, the path to a successful creative business is paved with dedication, resilience, and a commitment to continuous growth. So, if you're ready to unleash your creative potential and make remarkable strides in your artistic journey, remember that the possibilities are endless when you dare to dream big. Are you ready to embark on this remarkable journey with your art?
