We discuss his journey of becoming an artist through self-study and teaching, his creative process, and how social media has helped him sell paintings directly to collectors. He emphasizes the importance of painting what you love in order to be authentic, and also the importance of keeping costs low as an artist. Finally, he gives us some excellent tips for anyone looking to become a full time artist and he tells us all about his upcoming solo show in June at Arcadia Gallery.Aaron's FASO Site:https://www.aaronwesterberg.com/Aaron's Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/westerberg/
