I was chatting with my friend Katie Stack the other day on how we both love creating art businesses and the thought occurred to me that it would be so fun to do a Substack video convo for our community. Alas, a webinar series was born.
FRIDAY’S TOPIC: How do we get motivated to do art, to get or stay excited about our creative careers?

FRIDAY, JULY 31
2-3 PM PM ET
Katie texted me:
“I’ve been wondering…
What makes us choose a creative career?
Is it the same reason now as it was x number of years ago?
How does our “why” change how think about our art and our business?
Things like that. I feel like I’m entering this kind of fork in the road and I’m deciding what I want to go all in on and where I should put my energy and what I can/should let go of.
When we work for ourselves, we have to think about all these things.”
Join us as we share our thoughts in a free-flowing conversation on creating art businesses. We’ve got stories. We’ve got tips. Ask us anything!
Here’s what we’ve built:
An international art agency
Two illustration businesses
A wedding stationery business
A thriving Substack business (
An art-teaching platform with 30,000 students
Teaching in Europe
Teaching locally
A national jewelry craft line
Authoring a book
Illustrating picture books
Writing a column for a design magazine
Speaking engagements
and more we’ve forgotten!
Basically we love making creative businesses. And we love talking about it.

It’s free because we just want to do this and not everything needs to be financially lucrative. We’re not selling anything. We’re just having fun. Hopefully it will inspire you.
See you then!
Lilla and Katie
Got any questions for us? Leave them in the chat. We would love to hear your thoughts.
