http://www.alexandernderitu.com/bootcamp

'Artists often have a hard time getting their art work out there and appreciated. And it's not because it's not good work. It could be amazing work. But it's because you don't have the marketing/communication skills to let people know what you are doing.' - Evan Carmicheal, entrepreneurial advisor, on 'How to Promote Your Book Without Spending Money'

‘The reality is that as artists, you are a business. You are a brand. And marketing is as much a part of selling toothpaste as it is selling art…To make money in art is not “selling out” and unfortunately, many artists feel that way.’ - Adrian Salamunovic, co-founder of DNA 11/Canvas Pop
