#1 / Creating and Selling Authentic Art - New Artist Podcast Series / What's Coming

Episode 01 - A Peek at What’s Coming  

Welcome to the first episode of Sellable Art That Feels Like Me, the podcast dedicated to artists who aspire to create their most authentic work and sell it to those who value it as much as they do. I'm your host Michele Luminato, and this episode will give you a peek into who this podcast is for and what’s coming on future episodes as your guide to finding the perfect balance between passion and profit in the art world.

In this episode, you’ll hear Insights from my experience spanning over 25 years including art school, design, product creation, trend and colour forecasting, my experience as a Contemporary Painter and selling art globally.

We'll talk about:

✔ How staying true to your unique artistic vision not only satisfies you but also attracts a more dedicated audience.

✔ Learning how to tap into your authentic essence as your greatest strength to create your best work.

✔ Strategies for maintaining a productive flow in the studio, overcoming creative blocks for good. You’ll know by the end of this episode if this podcast is for you!

I believe teaching artists to sell art is one thing — but guiding them to sell their true self is another.

That’s the real journey: away from the noise, back to your essence.

Keep going — your art’s already saying something only you can.

🎨 You’ve taken the courses. You’ve learned the techniques.

But your art still doesn’t feel like you — and maybe, lately, you don’t even love it anymore and selling feels even harder.

Welcome to Sellable Art That Feels Like Me, the podcast where I help artists reconnect with their voice, evolve their work, and create art that sells because it’s authentic.

I’m Michele Luminato — an American-born contemporary artist living in Melbourne, working full-time in my studio, and guiding artists through the process of making work that finally feels like them (and naturally attracts collectors who love it too).

Each week, we’ll dive into the real behind-the-scenes of being an artist — the emotional cycles, the creative breakthroughs, and the business clarity that turns connection into confidence (and sales).

Because when your art starts feeling like you again — it naturally becomes more collectable, more magnetic, and more joyful to create.

About the Podcast

Sellable Art That Feels Like Me
For Artists who want to create & sell their most authentic work.
Sellable Art That Feels Like Me is for artists who want to make work that feels honest, alive, and truly their own — and to sell it to people who feel that truth too.

Each week, we talk about what really goes on behind the canvas — the creative ruts, the quiet doubts, the turning points where you finally start trusting yourself again. Because when your art feels like you, it naturally connects and sells with ease.

I’m Michele Luminato, a contemporary artist and mentor helping artists find their authentic voice. My own path has been anything but linear — from design studios and color forecasting to creating and selling my own art full time.

What I’ve learned along the way is simple:
Great art isn’t about getting louder — it’s about getting truer.

I’ve helped hundreds of artists rediscover their spark, refine their voice, and create collections that sell because they’re making artwork that only they can make. If you’re ready to stop overthinking and start creating work that feels like you again, you’re in the right place.

Keep going — your art’s already saying something only you can.
