What a great opportunity if you get a place to stay and a studio to work on your art! 🙂 there should be more of these programs where we artists get to do the things we try to do all the time 🙂🙌🏾
I hope you applied anyway @ocinematique. I've had and been a apart of different shows and exhibitions. I haven't applied to a residency yet but plan to. Check out the requirements but go for it anyway. The least you could get is a No. By the way, I have a normal job to pay for bills as well. We have to push through, work harder at our crafts, and BELIEVE that Greatness will come to pass.
I am afraid to apply for an artistic residency because I have never had an exhibition of my work (did even try to be honest) because I invested all my time on working for living (I had to). Do you think this lack of experience can be a problem If I want now to participate in a residency program?

You are right... indeed there is nothing to lose. For your exhibitions, how did you start, did you send e-mail to the gallery asking if they are interested in your works? I am starting to think to do it... About the residency, I had to write a project to partecipate so I wrote it but at the end the gallery suddenly closed the program... never mind. Thank you for taking your time writing me and sharing positive experience!
Entering local art competitions and getting connected with local art-based groups will help you get started. The main thing(for all of us) is KEEP CREATING AND PUTTING YOUR WORK OUT FOR EVERYONE TO SEE..social media, local shows,....just create so that you can have a healthy portfolio and confidence to submit your work to galleries, residencies, etc.
keep pushing you do create...even if you think you don't have any ideas...they will come. Just keep your hands working and the creativity will flow. That's a note to myself too. lol

thank you for this. I am in the process of creating my own art residency (5 year project) so super interesting to see it from the artist perspective!
Great informative video! But where is part 2? :)

Hello! Did you ever do part 2?
