We're kicking things off with the episode that started it all: The Sparkly Tampon Effect. Yes, the title is unforgettable... but so is the lesson. In our very first podcast episode, we dive into the power of standing out in a crowded marketplace and why being memorable is often more important than trying to appeal to everyone.

✨ Artist Resource Page (ALL YOU NEED TO ROCK YOUR ART BUSINESS) ✨ Social media is rented land. Your email list is something you actually own. In this episode of The Splatter Effect, Kayla and Kendal make the case for why every artist should stop putting off email marketing and start building an email list today. Whether you have 10 subscribers or 10,000, there's never been a more important time to create a direct connection with the people who love your work. They cover: • Why relying solely on social media is a risky business strategy. • The biggest myths keeping artists from starting an email list. • Simple ways to grow your subscribers without feeling salesy. • What to send once people join your list. • How an engaged email list leads to more collectors, more sales, and a more sustainable art business. If you've been waiting for the "right time" to start your email list, this is your sign. Run. Don't walk. It can be lonely selling art every week without a solid group of like-minded friends.

✨ Artist Resource Page (ALL YOU NEED TO ROCK YOUR ART BUSINESS) ✨   After 102 episodes of The Splatter Effect, we've learned that building a creative business isn't about having the perfect plan. It's about starting before you're ready, staying consistent when no one is watching, and being willing to pivot when the path changes. In this episode, we're reflecting on the biggest lessons we've learned from interviewing artists, growing our own businesses, and showing up week after week behind the microphone. From embracing imperfect action to trusting the long game, we're sharing the advice we wish someone had given us when we started. Whether you're a full time artist, creative entrepreneur, or just beginning your journey, this conversation is packed with practical encouragement to help you keep moving forward. Sometimes the biggest breakthroughs don't come from one big moment. They come from showing up 102 times. It can be lonely selling art every week without a solid group of like-minded friends.

For our 100th episode, we're honored to welcome one of our favorite designers, Edith Anne Duncan, for a conversation that every art lover and homeowner needs to hear. In a world obsessed with trends and perfectly styled spaces, Edith reminds us of something far more enduring: great design doesn't begin with furniture—it begins with art. Together, we explore why original artwork creates homes with soul, how designers use art to guide every design decision, and what collectors often get backwards when furnishing a space. Whether you're decorating your first home, collecting your first original painting, or simply wanting your spaces to feel more personal, this conversation will completely change the way you think about design. In this episode, we discuss: Why art should come before furniture. How original artwork creates rooms that feel layered and collected. The biggest decorating mistakes homeowners make. What designers look for when selecting artwork. Why investing in meaningful art transforms a house into a home. If you've ever wondered why some homes simply feel different, this episode will show you why. Thank you for being part of the first 100 episodes of The Splatter Effect. We couldn't have reached this milestone without you, and we're so excited for what's ahead.

⬇️⬇️⬇️ JOIN THE SPLATTER EFFECT SUMMER CHALLENGE If all of our followers, email subscribers, and social media accounts disappeared tomorrow, there's one platform we'd prioritize from day one: Pinterest (that we neglected originally). In this episode, we break down exactly how we'd use Pinterest to build an art business from scratch. Not to gain followers, but to attract buyers. From creating artwork-specific landing pages and optimizing for search, to building trust with collectors and generating long-term traffic, we're sharing the strategy we'd use to make Pinterest a consistent source of art sales. Kendal shares how she is doing this in *REAL* time and gives us practical tips to fold it into our everyday processes. If you've been treating Pinterest like social media, this episode may completely change the way you think about the platform.
