Episode #94 -Stephanie Gaffney – Thriving as a Creative Entrepreneur
Episode 95
Sunday, 30 March, 2025

Check out the full video version! 🎥 https://www.tisch.academy/ In this episode of The Creative Endeavour, I’m joined by Stephanie Gaffney — a live wedding painter, fine artist, educator, and entrepreneur based in New Orleans. Stephanie has built an incredible business through her captivating live event paintings, where she captures the spirit of a couple’s special day in real time. But her journey goes far beyond the canvas. We talk about what it takes to turn art into a thriving career — from creating memorable client experiences to showing up authentically in your work and marketing. Stephanie shares the mindset shifts that helped her overcome creative doubt, build confidence, and become a sought-after artist in the wedding industry. We also dive into her approach to teaching other artists through her “Wedding Painter’s Blueprint” course, and how she balances creativity, business, and life. This is a must-listen if you're an artist looking to turn passion into profession, or if you’re curious about the world of live event painting. Stephanie’s energy and insight are absolutely contagious.
