What books, podcasts, or other resources have been most helpful for growing your art business?

Open yourself up to research and learning from diverse sources. Science podcasts like RadioLab and Pathologies can spark creative ideas. Read autobiographies of creative people—not just other visual artists, but chefs, writers, and musicians—to see how they approached their careers. Try to take one actionable morsel from each book rather than implementing everything. Include business development books every third or fourth read. Listen to audiobooks while working in the studio to maximize learning time without sacrificing creation time.
