Learn about the way artists should approach e-commerce when you tune into this lovely episode. Guest: Michael Facchinello is the founder of Altamira. He loves to create things from scratch and drive them through to completion. As a kid, his aunt owned a gallery in Basalt. He spent summers with his grandparents in nearby Aspen, so he spent a lot of time in the gallery.
