An acclaimed guidebook for artists, Living the Artist’s Life is written by the gallery owner and novelist Paul Dorrell. This book, now in its 2nd printing, has struck a nerve with artists nationwide. For sample chapters and endorsements, go to www.livingtheartistslife.com.
The book explains how Dorrell helped a group of unknown artists gain national recognition. It covers subjects from pricing your work, getting into galleries, and gaining publicity, to landing commissions. It also covers topics such as depression, self-doubt, rejection, and snobbery. The Rhode Island School of Design and several other universities have endorsed Living the Artist’s Life.
Dorrell has worked as an art consultant for the National D-day Memorial, the Mayo Clinic, and hundreds of private collectors. His monumental projects have included a presidential dedication, and a monument in the Capitol Building in Washington, DC. He is on a tour of 60 cities, and recently spoke at Yale, the Chicago Artists’ Coalition, California State University, and RISD. His tour this fall will include the Art Students League of New York on September 20, and the Westchester Arts Council on September 21.
