“You’re shy — so are they,” says polymer clay artist Christi Friesen about making a career of your art, acknowledging how hard it can be to put yourself out there. As she tells Jewelry Artist podcast host Katie Hacker, “We’re always selling ourselves: a piece of our heart, our hand, our brain.” But it’s important to do it and connect with people any way you can, Christi advises. Drawn to her medium first for its super range of colors, she also considers its easy workability and low cost an invitation to play. “You’re not trying to make a masterpiece every day,” she reminds us. Assume you’re going to smash what you make some days, have fun, and learn to be yourself. Find out how Christi has built a Creative Circle that inspires her and sustains her business.
