Artist Bobby Clark has built a loyal following of fans and collectors across the globe (including Solange Knowles!), and over the past decade, she’s learnt a great deal about the business of being an artist. In this conversation, she shares her path to becoming a successful commercial artist, on her own terms.
There's something special about Bobby Clark. Originally from a small town in Scotland, Bobby arrived in Melbourne ten years ago - and swiftly immersed herself in Melbourne's vibrant creative scene.
With the optimism and dogged determination of a new immigrant, Bobby worked unbelievably hard at a huge array of creative jobs (from house painter, to wedding photographer!) before she launched her own solo art practice in 2016, with nothing but an Instagram account, and a Squarespace website.
In the years that have passed since then, Bobby has built a loyal following of fans and collectors across the globe, and she's learnt a great deal about the business of being an artist. She shares a little of that wisdom with us, via this very entertaining podcast episode!
