Summary
Do you avoid posting about your art on Instagram because you just don’t know what to write?
It’s a common issue for artists to feel overwhelmed about sharing the art they make on social media because it feels so draining. In this episode, I’m sharing my personal strategy for promoting art on Instagram in a way that feels authentic and energizing rather than a chore.

| 0:12.3 | I've never gotten this going on. I'm going to do it and I'm going to go for it. And when you do it, |
