Finding Your Artistic Voice, Building a Collector Base, Confidently Selling Prints & Originals with Rebecca King

This week on the Artist Academy Podcast, I’m chatting with fine artist Rebecca King, whose journey into full-time art is equal parts inspiring and refreshingly honest. Rebecca walks me through the years she spent experimenting with style and medium before discovering her signature look—those calming, cool-toned abstract pieces created with acrylic inks. Hearing how she pieced together her creative identity over time is such a good reminder that your style doesn’t magically appear… you build it. We also dig into the business side of things: how Rebecca priced her early work, how her first small wins at art shows fueled bigger steps, and how she now structures her collections, email launches, and print releases. Her process is thoughtful and strategic without feeling overwhelming, and she shares how she uses her email list as the engine behind most of her sales. The part that hit me most was the emotional shift that pushed her into full-time art—a combination of burnout, loss, and the desire to finally lean into the work she was meant to do. Rebecca’s path is such a beautiful example of what’s possible when you trust your intuition, communicate with your collectors, and show up for your creativity with intention. If you’re building an art business with meaning, this conversation will feel like a deep breath and a roadmap all in one.
