Artist Resources

This page serves to support interdisciplinary artists in any stage of their career. Drawing from my own experiences and the insights shared in discussions centered on professional practices, this space offers tools, strategies and inspiration to help you refine your professional approach, grow your practice, and connect with others.  Check back often for new updates and content. 

Interdisciplinary Artist Discussions: Professional Practices for Fine Artists

As part of an ongoing series in the Dallas Fort Worth area, these free, RSVP-only discussions are designed to foster collaboration and provide valuable insights for fine artists with an emphasis on navigating the business side of their practice.

Each session, I lead a roundtable discussion focused on a relevant topic for professional development—whether it's procuring funding, navigating exhibition opportunities, project management for murals and exhibitions, creating artist materials and contracts, or other essential aspects of an artist's career. We exchange knowledge and experiences, share resources and offer practical solutions to better and grow our practice.

The goals of these discussions are guided by the following values:

  • Commanding fair market value for our work and services while avoiding exploitation

  • Upholding our integrity as artists and safeguarding our creativity

  • Fostering positive relationships within our community

  • Setting professional standards for ourselves and our projects

Aubree Dale

“My interests lie in combing the expectations of the individual within our large, modern social networks. I strive to create over engineered maximalist ecosystems. These take shape as poorly rendered, unbalanced worlds by way of painting, sculpture & installation and performance. Materials hard and soft give way to transparent billowy layers, obsessive mark making and object manipulation.

 

Paintings and digital works tend to be complex records of memory, anxiety and wish. Much of my sculpture and installation is transitional and informed by my work as a welder and drive to experiment with new mediums. I often use metal and embroidery as doodling mechanisms. Found object sculptures, largely consisting of rescued single-use items are married with homemade bioplastics to create downy, transparent artifacts and portals. Online and in person performance pieces are a new element to my work that further entangle and extend storylines. I find them to be incredibly informative as they are paving the way to new concepts and work.”
