    Great Advice for Artists!
    This is such a fun podcast with great advice for artists of any kind. I’m a writer/digital artist, and all the tips and inspiration about living a creative life are so encouraging. It’s a fun, hangout kind of show, perfect to put on, work to, and learn from.

    THANK YOU! for the Aug 22, 2022 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
    Rafi…THANK YOU for your words of encouragement and wisdom on the Aug 22 episode. I very much needed to hear all of that. My goodness. Everything you talked about I’m going thru right now. Ok…for the last 8 months. LOL! But the encouragement from you (and Klee), knowing u both live it EVERYDAY, the struggles-2 steps forward, 5 steps back- but do it because you love it. PERIOD. end of story. Dude, that rang so true with me and I needed to hear it. In Dec 2021, I separated (ok was fired) from my regular 9-5 good paying job, and I decided to pick up the paint brushes again in plans to paint and illustrate. Needless to say, it’s been tough…denied unemployment, no $ coming in and just getting by, and thus, questioning if this is the right path. I’m blessed to have a VERY spiritual, supportive and loving life, so she has been hanging in there thru this process. At the end of the day, your words made me realize that no matter what happens (even if I have to maybe get a side gig, or even go back to working for the man), I need to continue to do my artwork because I do truly love it. In the book, Tatoos on the Heart, Fr Boyle quoted Mother Teresa saying “We are not called to be successful, but faithful.” He goes on to say “If you surrender your need for results and outcomes, success becomes God’s business.” Again, thank you to Rafi and Klee for your podcast(s) and Shari g your story and journey. God bless & ☮️ eric

    I really love this podcast. I first started following Rafi and Klee on YouTube and was excited when I found out they have a podcast as well. I love how honest and inspirational they are. They make me feel like I can succeed as an artist so long as I’m consistent and patient with myself. Thanks so much! @reed.paints on Instagram

    Yes! Real life artists!
    I love the honest and real life of what it takes to become awesome. Explaining to other artists the ups and downs of ecommerce, galleries, art shows, etc. I love the psychology given to make us feel like we are all in this together! Keep being you, Rafi and Klee!
