This fortnight, fellow artist mentor and arts broadcaster Willamina Russo sits on the other side of the interview table and lets Laura and Ros ask the questions. Willamina has been mentoring artists for three years now and is driven to help artists to take the next right step. We chat about the different ways of being a successful artist and touch on the importance of considering both the intrinsic and extrinsic success measures. Willamina shares some golden tips on managing comparisonitis and Laura addresses the overwhelm that can occur when new artists are starting out. In this interview, we cover: Why mastering your craft comes before all else and how to do just that The career avenue options available to you The importance of being able to clearly communicate about your art Why you need to find your style

You can get to know Willamina by checking out her socials, her website and also her podcast: Interview with an Artist.
