INTRODUCING THE THE ARTISTS ASSISTANCE HUB

You are allowed to do less—and still move forward.

Most artists are exhausted not because they lack passion—but because they’re trying to do too much without support.

Find the boost you need with productivity, burnout, creativity, and imagination here.

Burnout for full-time visual artists


Full-time visual artists often don’t burn out because they lack discipline—they burn out because there is no off switch. When your art is your income, your schedule, your reputation, and your identity, rest can start to feel irresponsible instead of necessary.

Why burnout hits full-time visual artists harder

Artist of the Month

PJessica Curning-Kuenzi

I create stainless steel chainmaille jewelry. Chainmaille is the ancient art of weaving metal rings together, which was used as flexible armor. I use the same technique but on a smaller scale to make jewelry. I make each piece by meticulously weaving metal rings together one by one. Some pieces are made with over 800 rings. Sometimes I add different sized rings, natural stones, crystals, colored anodized aluminum rings, and/or delicate chains to make a unique statement piece.

I have been photographing nature for the last 30 years. I spend as much time as possible exploring the trails, waterways and natural areas to create images that exemplify a sense of peace and tranquility.
