Everyone wants to be an artist. Very few decide to become professionals.
In this workshop, Stathis will break down what that actually means — not the romantic version, but the reality.
He will share his journey openly: how he started, how he built his career, and how he's still in the process of becoming a professional artist himself. Because this isn't a destination — it's a mindset you commit to every day.
Inspired by The War of Art by Steven Pressfield, this session focuses on the invisible battle behind the work: resistance, discipline, fear, and consistency. The things no one teaches, but everything depends on.
Through a focused presentation with slides, Stathis will talk about:
- What separates amateurs from professionals
- Why talent is not enough
- How to build discipline when motivation disappears
- How to treat your art like a career, not a hobby
- The reality of working as an artist in today's world
This is not about technique.
This is about how you think, how you work, and how you show up.
Registration required. See Ticket Link to secure your spot.
