Creative Thursday with Marisa

Marisa Anne Cummings, a Los Angeles based artist + author + entrepreneur, actually started the Creative Thursday podcast in 2006. What? what! how is that even possible? And yes! she wishes she had kept it going after all these years. Yet as a small business owner, maybe you can relate? choices needed to be made, and a passion for painting and continuing to build her art business became her focus. Cut to over a decade later, armed with SO many more lessons learned, and a – can no longer be suppressed – desire to share them with you! Marisa is ready to make a return to one of the first creative mediums she loved, podcasting! Even more fired up than before, Marisa is looking forward to picking up where she left off on her creative journey through both – one her favorite things to do – having thoughtful, inspiring, keeping it real, conversations with fellow Creatives + Business Owners along with offering her own perspective as an artist and entrepreneur, traversing this online world. We’re talking everything from life + business + creativity + entrepreneurship.

ct077 Are You Supported May 03, 2018

Show notes

What does it really feel like to share your art and creative expression with the world? To stand in front of your art on a wall? What do traditional business experts not understand about the business of being an artist? If you invite people to celebrate and support your work, will they come?

Are you feeling supported, and are you giving the support you desire? How do you show your support for those who inspire you?

Join me as I explore answers to these questions and share my thoughts as a professional self-taught artist, as someone who's reaching for that Zen state, and rolling water droplets every time I stand with my art.

ct075 Are you Investing in Yourself? Apr 19, 2018

Show notes

How much money are you really saving when you choose not to invest in yourself? In this episode I'm sharing one of the biggest business {and life} lessons I've learned. It's time to reverse engineer, and get a new perspective on the value of time and money especially as a creative ~ when our greatest value is focusing on our unique gift of creating. Our artistic expression is not something we can outsource. Yet, if you are just starting out and/or still bootstrapping your business how do you know when it's the right time to invest?

ct072 Cal Patch: on landing a dream job at Urban Outfitters and how her love for clothing design lead to discovering her true calling Mar 29, 2018

Show notes

Why Cal can no longer walk into an Urban Outfitters or Anthropologie. How realization that life in the fashion industry is notoriously overworked and underpaid transformed Cal into a 20 year, we can officially call it creative career of her own. How following her heart and a roll with it approach to her work have lead her to her calling plus time to feed her chickens in the afternoon. Enjoy a conversation with Cal Patch, clothing designer, author, maker and teacher. While we don't analyze things too much {well maybe we do as it is my podcast after all ;)} we do open maybe 1 or 2 cans of worms about artists and designers value, rights and getting paid!!! Cal designs for and teaches women seeking to express their individual style rather than follow the latest trend. And if you ever have the chance to take a sewing and pattern design class from her in person, do it!
