RISE ARTIST, RISE!
THE BUSINESS OF ARTING
A Workshop Series for Developing Artists
A Business Workshop Series for Emerging Artists
Join fearless watercolor artist, Denyse Dar, on a journey of artistic self discovery. This isn’t your average art class. You aren’t average. You are an artist. You were born to create. The problem for creators is they are too often plagued with doubt. “Where do I get off thinking I’m an artist? I can’t even draw a straight line.” Neither can Denyse. And that has been her greatest strength.
​
You won’t learn how to draw or paint. Classes like that are a dime a dozen and only teach you how to draw or paint like someone else according to someone else’s “rules.” Denyse’s work proves, THERE ARE NO RULES! Each inner artist has a voice, vision and medium that is wholly unique to them. And that is actually what makes a great (and even famous) artist. But you can’t develop that inner artist if you are going to keep trying to art like someone else. That’s where Denyse comes in.
Ok, so you create art - now what? The days of do-it-all Artist Agents are long gone. Now an artist needs to not only create art but know how & have the skill to self promote, market and be a business owner!
​
The business aspect is where almost every artist fails. It uses a completely different part of the brain than art. And it makes or breaks a career.
​
That’s where Denyse comes in - she’s not only an accomplished. licensed and professionally represented artist, she’s an incredible business woman. She has won numerous sales awards and broken national sales records. She has also coached and guided artists at every level of their career - from emerging artists to established artist’s with museum exhibits.
