There's a wide world of opportunity outside of galleries and many artists are making a full-time living by diversifying their practices.  Meet three Chicago artists and an on-line gallerist who will tell you how they do it. 

Lynn Basa (moderator) creates works that adapt in setting and scale from intimate studio paintings to site-specific public art commissions in terrazzo and mosaic.  She is the author of "The Artist's Guide to Public Art: How to Find and Win Commissions" ( www.lynnbasa@lynnbasa.com).

Nikko Moy is the curator of Ashes & Milk (http://ashesandmilk.com), an online gallery founded on the premise that a lot can be made from very little.  Lee Tracy, is an artist who explores many mediums and formats of expression to make varied points that resonate from one voice (http://www.leetracy.com). Local insomniac Chad Kouri of The Post Family (www.thepostfamily.com) is a freelance illustrator (www.longliveanalog.com) and Art Director of Proximity Magazine (www.proximitymagazine.com).
