about art for artists
The Best Art Business Books for Artists is the new home for information from another site I developed with the same name. It's a work in progress at present but now has enough content to make it worth highlighting and my other site is about to be closed down. Initial categories cover:
Interestingly most of the books on the new page are EITHER new OR new editions of books that have been around for a while. So much has changed in the past few years. In particular the emphasis on business online is now much more important. I'm finding that I really need to look long and hard at content as I do the transfer - and I'm needing to buy new editions of books I've loved in the past. Plus I know than a few authors have recognised the need to update and have new editions in the pipeline. For example, a couple of days ago I was contacted by Caroll Michels - author of How to Survive and Prosper as an Artist (a book I really rate!) - about the NEW edition of her book which is published later this month. This has got a LOT of new content to reflect the changes in the workings of the art market and the new challenges for all artists - even established ones. For example:
So I hope you'll join me in my investigation of what's currently on offer and the best books about the art business for artists which offer both great content and good value for money! There's a lot more to come and this page will be continuously updated over the next few months - and years!

On the 25th May 2018 - in less than 60 days - The General Data Protection Regulation comes into effect. It affects everyone and every organisation having data transactions with individuals who live/work in the European Union. This blog post is about resources I've been trying to pull together about GDPR - for artists and art organisations - societies, charities, schools, galleries etc. This means it INCLUDES:
NEW PAGE Today I'm launching my new resource page about General Data Protection Regulation for Artists and Art Organisations. - which is very much a work in progress. You can find it in the Office Practices section of the website. The art organisations include: art societies, art galleries, art dealers and art schools. Previously, I've written two long blog posts on Making A Mark:
The NEW PAGE includes links to useful resources not included in the blog post and builds upon what I've previously written. I'm still looking and still finding new resources which might be helpful - but you may have to do a lot of reading. RECOMMENDATION: Besides the links to the publications and resources produced by the Information Commission (first section), the section I'd suggest people take a look at is that relating to Issues for Art Organisations. It includes a very useful document written by The Arts Society providing guidance to its branch societies. I'm also hoping to develop a section for "Artists as Sole Traders". The one thing I have discovered is that more and more information is being published the closer we get to 25th May - and it's likely that a lot more will emerge as issues are tested in the courts thereafter. Bottom line - this is a live issue for anybody who is creating transactions involving the personal data of anybody living in the EU.

Like you I'm just trying to work my way through the maze of online information about GDPR. You are also not my client and I do not know your individual circumstances - meaning I have no liability to you in any circumstances should you choose to rely on any of the materials on this blog or website - although whatever is published by the ICO should be more authoritative than most!
I've published a NEW PAGE - TIPS: Starting Out as an Artist - in the new PRACTICE section of this website. (see How to be a successful artist) It's not about 'how to paint' - instead it's all about the attitudes, habits, knowledge and practices related to the art business which will help emerging artists develop their careers - and exhibit and sell their art. So If you want.....
It's by no means a finished page. I've got a lot more I can add to it - but it would be very interesting and helpful to me to know what you think of it so far. Do please take a look. I'd appreciate feedback or leave a comment on this blog post below. Subscribe to Art Business Info. for Artists - NEWS by Email
