He struggled like most students did before being hired for these jobs. But Morris went to many seminars trying to find the answer to every artist question: How do I make money with my art? After learning some techniques about business he applied it to his animation and started to get work right away. He went to a publishing workshop and realized that there are some key things artist aren’t doing to improve their success rate when it comes to finding their dream job or making money for their original work. He signed with the publishers to create the book, The Wealthy Artist: Bridging the Gap Between Student and Professional. Interviewed over 50 teachers, students, Professional artists and business owners to see the similarities that brought them to their success.
Being married to his beautiful wife Roxy and having 2 kids (Mila and Luca), he is driven to kill the mindset of the “starving artist” to help you take care of you Family and Finances. Anthony doesn’t want anyone to experience the troubles he went through to get to where he is now. With the book, Seminars and consulting he will make sure to guide you to your path of being a wealthy artist.
