About us

Hi, I’m conor rush.

I started Starving Artists because I wanted more artists to continue making Art - to continue being Artists.

Believe me, I don’t want you to have to get a job anymore than you do.

Being an Artist is really important and everyone who manages to cling on and keep making is doing great.

I started this to help. After a long time supporting other artists through their BA and MA work (and a lot of proof-reading of applications too!) I had so much positive feedback and a real joy from seeing so much success that I knew I wanted to keep helping. When I also had the idea for the opportunity table - and how to make it so much easier to use than anything else I’d seen - it seemed too perfect to not at least give it all a go!
