I am part of a couple of accountability groups and they're art crit groups.
One meets every other Friday.
And there we catch up with what's going on in our lives art-wise and ask each other questions.
For example, one of the tangible wins that I've had since joining Network was I actually sold a big piece of artwork.
But the process was confusing for me because I had usually only sold work through a gallery.
And this one, I was contacted by someone out of the blue on email.
So just every step of the way from email communication to...
how to write up an invoice to how to communicate with the collector was like confusing for me.
So I talked about it at the accountability group.
And then a couple of weeks later, another question popped up and then I was able to ask it.
in the Asks channel, which is like Slack, similar to Slack.
And then all these artists that have more experience than I do in doing that thing that I want to learn how to do was chiming in and giving me so much good advice on what to do next.
So it's like the minutia of even where to ship it from.
People were giving me advice based on their own experience.
And then... And did it work out?
Yes, it worked out.
Perfect.
I was like, oh my gosh, it worked.
And then no questions were asked.
And, you know, the money was in my Venmo and PayPal and that was it.
