Testimonials

"Liron Sissman knows the art of doing business and provides clear business models for making art your day job. I was worried that I was signing up for another workshop that would merely tell me how to put together my resume and artist statement, but this was not the case. I was seeking the next steps towards developing real business models to take my studio practice to the next level. I found Sissman's approach was, not only practical, but respectful to the integrity of studio practice; while being realistic about financial sustainability. Few artists are savvy about being an entrepreneur, fewer are generous enough to share trade secrets, Sissman's workshop offered both."

"I brought a few pieces, you looked, you talked, and I listened. It was exactly what I came for... Advice. Damn Good Advice. I won't share your lessons here, but suffice it to say, you opened my eyes to side roads to this place I want to go.

Thanks to Liron Sissman I can now begin to turn my true reason for being here into what could be an economic reality. And so much more on a personal level. Not by miracles but by smart advice and a few nuggets of information followed by work and dedication to my art. If you are ready to take the step... you are smart to first see Liron."

"I am so grateful to Liron! After I worked with her just a little, things started to instantly happen for me -- the shows that followed made me real busy! Also, I was really impressed with her punctuality and responsibility. For sure, she knows what she is doing."

"I must thank you for the workshop, now I have a lot of leads to follow and feel I should try a little longer.

I am a portrait /figurative oil painter passionately interested in the codification and capture of my subjects state of mind. I have had to label myself as emerging for the last few years because I have not been able to make substantial headway in the art market. Then I hit a wall; what could I do to move my status from emerging to emerged and mid career. On February 21, 2010, I took Liron Sissman's marketing workshop at the Montclair Museum. Now it is February 22nd I am armed with strategies and a list of new resources to promote my work. I am off to research and put in place the things I learned. I am glad to know I can use Ms. Sissman as a resource in the future!"

"I was in your class this past Sunday at the Montclair Art Museum. I saw a call for artists at a small gallery in Ringwood and used your email format to apply for exhibition and two of my paintings were accepted! This will be my first public showing. I just wanted to thank you again for a great class. I believe your professional approach helped me get my first exhibition. Thanks so much."

"I wanted to thank you for your workshop in Summit. I learned much more than I expected. In fact, I learned so many new things that it will take some time to digest it all. I have had a mysterious process broken down into steps that make sense to me. After Liron's presentation I have reread my notes three times and find more information and inspiration. I am extremely grateful for all the information and inspiration that I have been given. I think of the cost of the workshop as tuition for a class I will continually use. It is my hope that when I have the money I can work with you myself. Thank you Liron."

"Liron Sissman led an Art Business workshop in Rowayton last weekend and I had a front row seat! For a few hours I listened, took notes, asked questions, and listened some more. All in all, the afternoon flew by because Liron's lecture was highly informative, practical, eye-opening and enjoyable. Liron Sissman is a gifted artist and business professional and knows first hand how to weave the two together for success. I met Liron at a crucial time since I was launching my first ever art website. I set up a phone consultation with Liron and she continued to advise and encourage me to follow my passion for art. I really can't express in words how much I have learned and gained in a few short days. I look forward to working with her as time goes on. Thank you Liron for your candid ability to share and explain the business of art. I will recommend you highly to friends in need of support and direction."

"I thought it was incredibly informative and I left wanting even more! Liron is very articulate and compassionate about selling and marketing art. She seems to have covered all the angles from using her website and the internet to personal visits and phone calls to galleries. She was very organized with handouts and using her computer to highlight different points. I wrote six pages of copious notes! I was intrigued by every bit of information she had to offer. She knows her stuff! Subsequently, we are planning to hire her for our studios at WALA to help with marketing strategies."
- Britt Bair


" I appreciate all of the information you gave us at the Rowayton Arts Center. As the Education Director I can honestly say that everyone interested in promoting their art should take your workshop. It was very enlightening!"
