Better Than Cheese is the book every artist needs. One that not only speaks to making art, and all the messy mindset stuff involved, but it's designed to help artists turn their art into a business! Using the author's own lived experience, both as an entrepreneur and as a professional artist, Better Than Cheese is made for visual artists who don't just want to have a business - they want to leave a mark.

In the first half of the book, readers will refine their art practices and understand more deeply about why they create, and why they struggle with things like self-sabotage. In the second half of the book, readers will learn what they need in order to set up and run a profitable business.
