In this episode of The Professional Artist Podcast, still life painter Todd Casey is featured by the Professional Artist Association (ProfessionalArtist.com/join), the world's fastest-growing global community for committed fine artists.
Todd is a painter, educator, and author whose work blends classical realism with unique storytelling. He has authored two influential books and teaches at notable institutions like the Art Students League of New York and the Massachusetts College of Art.
Todd dives deep into the art of building a sustainable creative life.
He shares how curiosity, storytelling, and teaching keep his creativity alive, how he maintains financial stability through writing and education, and how following his instincts allows him to stay true to his artistic vision.
From balancing multiple roles - artist, teacher, parent, and author - to creating art that reflects personal passion instead of market trends, this episode is full of insights to inspire your creative journey.
“I'm interested in art as a way of living instead of a way of making a living.”
– Todd Casey
