The Business Side of Being an Artist with Jason Matias

In today's episode I chat with artist/photographer Jason Matias While Jason's financial success is aspirational, it's his story that is the true inspiration for anyone wondering if they can make a living selling their art. Jason does not come from a wealthy family, who gave him a leg up in the art world. He was born into a military family and went into the family business by enlisting in the Air Force right out of high school. When Jason came out of the military 6 years later, he was terrified of becoming another homeless vet. While he tried some other conventional jobs, he couldn't shake his calling as an artist. Constantly obsessed with finding the light, Jason decided to put all his efforts into making a fine art career work.
