I was never supposed to become a tech founder.
I was just an artist trying to build a creative business,
but every hour spent on inventory, pricing, marketing,
and paperwork was an hour I wasn't creating.
So instead of waiting for someone else to solve the problem,
I built ArtWyrk.
A Creative Operating System designed to help artists
organize their business, protect their creativity,
and spend more time making what they love.
Summer D. Burrus
Founder & Creative Visionary
Artist. Systems thinker. Lifelong learner.
Summer founded ArtWyrk after experiencing firsthand how difficult it is to balance creativity with the demands of running a business. Rather than accepting that artists have to choose between creating and managing, she set out to build the tool she wished she had.
Her mission extends beyond helping artists sell their work. She believes every creative entrepreneur deserves the confidence, knowledge, and freedom to build a sustainable business while staying true to their craft.
