2024 — the year of self-worth.
As the year comes to a close, I’m reflecting on all the growth, lessons, and beautiful moments that shaped 2024. From learning to believe in myself to deepening friendships and embracing unexpected challenges, this year has been a RIDE.
So in this week’s special podcast episode, I dive into all the ups, the downs, lessons learned, and growth I’ve experienced over the past 12 months. While some lessons were easier to learn than others, I truly believe that, in the end, it’s all been to help me become the best version of myself.
Let’s get REALLY messy and celebrate the end of an unforgettable year together!

This week’s episode has a very special guest!
Meet Margie Woods — a soul-centered artist who I’ve brought in to talk more about how art helps us heal.
We’ll talk about her journey as a mixed media artist, photographer, creativity coach, and therapist and how she uses art as a mode of healing and self-expression with herself and her clients. We’ll also talk about how to detach yourself from the outcomes, embrace the rawness of creativity, and help others find freedom through art.
And because Margie is also part of our current Studio Elite cohort, you'll hear firsthand what it’s like inside. Don’t miss it!

As an artist, you’ll eventually face donation requests to have your art auctioned off for a good cause. And while it is an absolute honor, how do you decide which requests to accept — and which to politely decline?
In this episode, I’m sharing the art of setting boundaries and making thoughtful decisions when it comes to donating your work. Because yes, donating your art can be incredibly rewarding — but only if you approach it with intention and clarity.

It’s time for another “Ask Me Anything” episode! I’m answering listener questions with my raw, honest opinion on all things art, and your career as an artist.
And while I get a lot of listener questions about ALL KINDS of things, on this week’s episode, I’m digging into some specifics when it comes to pricing and selling your art.
We’ll talk through questions like:
Should you use artists platforms that promise to “do it all for you”?
How can you effectively price your art (so it sells for all it’s worth)?
How do you deal with scammers when selling art?
And of course, plenty more.
Don’t forget — if you want to submit your own questions to be featured in my next Ask Me Anything, you can do so on my Patreon: http://patreon.com/honestartpodcast

The number one thing holding you back in your art? Self-doubt. That feeling of not-enoughness. That wondering if you’re even a real artist because you didn’t go to art school, you don’t have all the fancy supplies, you’re painting at your kitchen table…I could go on.
It’s time to tell that voice to take a hike, y’all. Our work as artists is too important to be shut down and held back by imposter syndrome.
In this episode of The Honest Art Podcast, we’ll dig into things like:
Why the fugly stage of your art isn’t a reflection of you as an artist
How feelings of worthiness impact your art career (business-wise AND creatively)
A few tools to help you break free from imposter syndrome as an artist
Let’s get you back to the canvas, my friend.

From Picasso to Beyoncé, there’s a laundry list of artists who have changed their style and still found success (myself included!). There’s no need to put yourself or your art in a box. In fact, when you honor that shift…THAT’S when the real fun happens!
In this episode, we’re talking about how embracing that evolution is crucial to keeping your creativity alive and your career thriving. More specifically, we’ll discuss:
How the greats used multiple artistic styles and still found success
How my style has shifted in my own art career
How flexibility with style helps us make better art
Bridging the gap between artists and buyers, and giving both parties what they want (read: so you can keep making money even when your style changes!)

Are brand photos great for an artist? You bet. Don't believe me? I've brought on my own brand photographer, Alicia Leigh Rios, to help me out!
Alicia has an incredible talent for bringing out the best in others, and really knows how to make even the most camera-shy people feel confident (that’s me!). But I didn’t just bring her on the show to tell you how good she is. I brought her here to help you see why you, too, need brand photos as an artist!

I used to think that because I was introverted, there was no reason to have an art community. I already had the support of friends and family — wasn’t that enough?
The truth is, it wasn’t. Because of us artists? We NEED people who innately understand the creative process and can provide us with constructive feedback to improve our work. We aren’t meant to do this alone.
In this episode, I’ll share more about how joining an art community helped me, and how it can also help you overcome creative ruts and take advantage of new opportunities to propel your career forward.

I probably don’t have to tell you this, but…social media isn’t giving you the full story.
It’s really easy to play the comparison game when you see people (successfully) selling their art online. I’m guilty of it, too.
The truth is, most artists don’t JUST sell on social media. More than likely, they’re using multiple channels to show their work to potential buyers. It’s never JUST about posting a picture of your work and watching the bids roll in.
So, what about you? Are you relying solely on social media to sell your work? Well, then…it’s time to shake it up! Tune in to get a few different ideas for diversifying your artist's income.
P.S. This episode is full of some of my best tips for selling your work. Once you’re done listening (and have a better idea of what you want to do next), check out the FULL show notes library to learn more about each idea. I have TONS of content for you there: https://jodieking.com/podcast/

Art validates the human experience. Whether you believe it or not, so does your work (yes, even if you’re just painting for fun!).
Every piece has a story to tell and someone to connect to, so we can’t be afraid to get vulnerable when making art. Someone out there needs the raw, real version of what you have to say.
Your art matters, really. In this episode, I’ll show you all the ways you can discover how it makes an impact.

What happens when an artist takes a leap of faith and decides to commit to the process? If you tune into this week’s episode of the Honest Art Podcast, you’ll find out.
I’m joined by Jodie Gear, an artist from one of my previous Studio Elite cohorts. Jodie consistently inspired other Studio Elite members, and myself, with her authenticity, support, and encouragement.
But what happened BEFORE Studio Elite? What helped her take that leap of faith and apply for what she knew would ultimately become the next phase of her art career? You’ll have to listen to find out!

Talking about your art — why is it always SO difficult? Can’t you just tell people that the piece is what it is, and leave them to admire what they see?
Not quite. While this strategy can work if you’re just having fun with art (nothing wrong with that, by the way), if you want to SELL it, you’ll need to know how to articulate your WHY.
Does the thought of talking about your work terrify you? Make you sweat? Tune in to this episode — I’ve got a few methods that can help break the ice.
