Artists may feel lost in the job search during tough times. What to do?
- Get active in professional organizations; form contacts to keep in touch with people and employment opportunities. Develop relationships in each organization and follow up.
- Attend conferences that may be vaguely related to your field: network and make contacts, and maintain them. It's about people!
Just like Leonardo, keep your portfolio up to date to demonstrate your versatility.
- Create a website that showcases parts of your portfolio. It's more important to do it right and professionally than to have everything you've ever done posted.
- Take or teach a class, just to keep in touch with people. It's all about people, you'll notice.
