On this episode, I’m talking to the owner of Artist Made, a fine arts-based business. Shanika Grimes is a young woman who is full of life and personality but she’s also full of practical know-how and drive to create business success.
After operating from a rental property Shanika bit the bullet and got the financing to build her own studio, completing the project before age 30. Artist Made operates from the St. James, Barbados studio where she teaches art classes and conducts art camps but also offers Artist Made branded bags and other products. But a lot of her income is earned from custom projects, especially murals.
Shanika is incredibly sober about what it takes to succeed in business as an artist. You'll find out how she made the decision to take up art as a career in the first place and why it became so important to create a viable business out of it. You'll enjoy this! Listen in to the conversation.
