What is Artrepreneurship?

After some debating, copious amounts of writing and even more editing and re-writing (followed by a final round of debating) I've decided to begin a blog. I struggled with a name for it though - something that would capture both the art related and entrepreneurial education that has been the past year and a half of my life since starting Chicago Art Leasing. I wanted to provide a source that would have equal appeal for folks like me who are on the path of starting a business in turbulent economic times as well as those involved in the art world (not only practicing artists but also collectors, gallery owners and anyone with an appreciation for creativity).

At long last I have arrived at what I felt was an appropriate title: Artrepreneurship, thereby combining the same two elements that led to the creation of my company. I hope that you will find the content here interesting, thoughtful and engaging. And of course, I welcome all thoughts and feedback. Like my business itself, this is very much a living, constantly evolving venture and adventure. I'd very much like to hear your thoughts on the topics that are most relevant and interesting to you and I hope that this will be more of a dialog than just me talking to myself (which I do far more often than I would like to admit). While I'm looking forward to sharing my experiences in launching an art leasing startup with you, I'm even more excited about learning from you and hearing your own thoughts and insights. So without further ado... it's time for me to delve into the wonderful world of blogging.

Thank you for reading my mind.
