This is a must read for the beginner to the seasoned artist. The book is informative and fun
to read too. Even as a promoter, I am finding invaluable information that I can use to make
the arts market better. Maria tells you like it is from an artists point of view, her mistakes,
triumphs and "tricks of the trade" that only come from years of honing ones craft and trade.
I highly recommend this book!
