“I’ve read that over 92% of ceramicists in Australia make less than seventy thousand dollars a year from their work. ‘The median creative income for Australian artists is $7,000 – and $22,500 for those working on their practice full time,’ writes Arts Hub. ‘Clearly that isn’t enough to live on, yet a culture of secrecy keeps the struggle out of view and how artists actually support themselves often remains a mystery.’
This Masterclass is designed to pull back the curtain of secrecy and share with you how to make money from your ceramic practice.
We’re all born creatives, but only 0.2% of all Australians will make it their life’s work. Somewhere along the way everyone else made a choice to prioritise financial security. With this Masterclass, you don’t have to chose - it is possible to be fairly remunerated for your creative intelligence.
By joining The Quarry Masterclass, I hand over to you all my IP and I teach you exactly how to do it - from start to finish, no matter what stage your ceramic practice is currently at. Creating an iconic ceramic brand that will bring you financial and creative success is more of a science than you think, and you can learn it.”
