If you're wondering how to move from hobbyist to thriving artist in business, you're not alone—and you don’t have to do it alone either. In this episode, we explore the final (and often overlooked) piece of the puzzle: finding the right mentors and artist community to support your growth.

Listen to the full podcast episode here: How to Tap into Mentorship and Community for Success as an Artist - Step 5 of 5 

(And if you’re new to the series, head back to episode 40 for a full overview of how to turn your creative hobby into a sustainable art business.)

Mentorship can come in many forms—an online coach, an inspiring author, or someone completely outside the art world who sees your potential. The right mentor can help you zoom out, overcome roadblocks, and keep moving forward when you're stuck.

And then there’s community. Having a circle of like-minded creatives who understand the emotional rollercoaster of art-making is truly non-negotiable. Whether you're facing a rough patch or celebrating a big win, community offers the lift, hope, and encouragement that keeps you going.

Tune in to hear the 4 actionable steps for finding your community and your mentor.
