Discover what’s at the Fork in the Road between starving and thriving artist. I’m Andy, and I’m a kids book illustrator obsessed with the concept of how you can change course from that of the starving artist to the path of the thriving artist. I believe all the answers are out there right in front of us in the artists we know and love. Because as they say success leaves clues, so I’m becoming part detective and part guinea pig. As each week I’ll be interviewing artists that are making money, surviving and thriving. Then I'll be implementing what I learn in my own creative practice.

How Aoife O’Dwyer Found Freedom as a Full-Time NFT Artist

I sit down with full-time NFT artist Aoife O’Dwyer, whose work explores the gaps in human perception — not just in her art, but also in how she showcases it in the world of Web3.

We dig into:

What it really means to be a thriving artist in today’s world.

How Aoife stays frugal to sustain her full-time creative dream.

Managing an ADHD workflow and turning it into a strength.

How her design background shaped her success + unique style.

Why AI is a new artistic tool that expands access to creative mediums.

Her hand-drawn NFT collection “The Foofees” and how she kept her style consistent across 100+ artworks.

The tension between feeding art into the AI machine vs using it in a healthy creative way.

The real-life challenges and freedoms of working full-time as an NFT artist.

If you’re an artist, creative, or curious about NFTs, AI art, or making a living as an independent creator, this conversation will light a fire under you.
