Outreach, Print on Demand, and AI for Artists and Designers with Amber Vittoria | The Typecast Episode 12
In this episode, Katie and Ilana talk to poet and artist, Amber Vittoria. Amber shares how she’s able to naturally intertwine the kinds of art she does—poetry, visual and digital arts—and how it’s okay as people and as artists to pursue your interests that may or may not overlap with your career.
Take it from Amber; anyone can be a poet, a graphic designer, a painter all at the same time! She also shares some insights about how she manages her different income streams, how she handles her print shop through online platforms, and of course, her thoughts on AI and why it’s never going to replace artists.
Here's what you'll discover in this episode:

How to approach the outreach: Finding clients that fit you
