The Working Artist
Crista Cloutier is an American artist, art consultant, and visual storyteller now based in the South of France. Acting on a dream of being an artist herself, she stepped back from a successful career as an art dealer in the US and moved to the South of France (without knowing a word of French!). There, she began to work as a coach and consultant for fellow artists looking for help in bringing their artwork to the world.
Combining her knowledge of the art world and her desire to ‘fill the world with artists’, she created The Working Artist Masterclass - an online business program that helps artists from all walks of life become better at what they do, from those who are just starting out to those with already established careers.
Over the course of her career, she has worked with a number of significant contemporary artists showing today and also exhibits work herself. Her most recent exhibition, entitled “and she lived happily ever after”, can be found online through the RAVE Virtual Art Experience website.
