Artist Career Options
Start your own business
Many Artists are self-employed. They take on the projects they want,
and plan their own schedules. They set their own fees, and keep
the profits to invest in their business or spend as they see fit.
You can enjoy career independence when you choose this exciting
career!
Work where you want, when you want
Nearly 6 out of 10 Artists are self-employed, many of them fine
Artists who earn their income by selling their work. Of those who
are not self-employed, many work for advertising agencies, commercial
art and reproduction firms, or printing and publishing firms. The
U.S. Department of Labor predicts that employment opportunities
for Artists will grow by as much as 13 percent through the year
2010.* Employment of fine Artists is expected to grow because of
population growth, rising incomes, and growth in the number of people
who appreciate fine art.
