with host artist Miriam Schulman
Today, I’m diving into how I sold THOUSANDS of dollars of art last weekend at a sleepy outdoor show in the local park.
In this podcast, you will discover…
- What to say to close the sale!
- What motivated my art collectors to buy.
- Ninja tricks I used to help me stand above and beyond the other artists at the show.

Always enjoy hearing your approach. Thanks for sharing.
Miriam, thanks so much. I have taken several of your classes and found this information hugely helpful. Question: When you mat your original watercolors for your shows, do you display them in an acetate sleeve? or How? I find if I frame them, I have the cost of the frame which I don’t want to add to the painting sell price, as the buyer will usually reframe them anyway. Also the glass reflects badly depending on the lighting at the show. Acetate causes the same reflection issues. How do you display the matted originals?
Thank You.

Hi Deborah,
Great questions! Could you please ask them in a comment inside one of your Inspiration Place classrooms? That way, Miriam will better be able to see them and answer them for you.
Thank you!
Thank you, Miriam…Wow, what a goldmine of information! I will listen again & take notes. I have become a big fan recently and am broken hearted that I missed the September 25 deadline for your Passion Portraits series. I love your style & have watched several of your videos. Is there any chance you will offer that again? I would be first in line.
So glad you’re a fan! Sorry that you missed the series, but if you stay on the Inspiration Place mailing list, you`ll be the first to know about the next free training series, and we hope that you will join us for the next program!!
