Artist Kate Renee’s presentation, “Selling Art on Etsy”, was incredibly thorough, interesting, and informative with great insight from an experienced Etsy artist. The artists especially enjoyed her real-time demonstration of adding an actual product to her Etsy page. Kate’s presentation was organized and flowed well while also being flexible enough to dialogue directly with the audience in a very approachable and collegial manner.

“The words cannot pour out fast enough for how much gratitude and respect I have for Kate Renee. I showed up to her studio one afternoon, blank notebook in hand and a frustrated artist, I had major blocks but had no idea; I just wanted to do art. I needed a guru. That’s what it feels like when I meet with Kate, spiritual art guru, mentor, compadre, whatever word might resonate with you choose it. The experience of meeting with her has brought me so much clarity that I had been struggling to find both in terms of my personal, work and artistic life, it finally feels like I am getting my voice back.”

“We’re really strategic about who we choose. We don’t just choose people who are creating art, but artists who are very focused, very dedicated to their art form, really driven to build a customer base, who are working hard to get their names out there. Kate Renee is just one artist who we feel a lot of pride about. She was in Colors: Gamut’s first call for works, and then she had Imaginarium, and Beauties Behaving Badly. Kate Renee has that drive, and it’s so deep in her, and it’s so visible.”
