Sell Your Art on the Net

Image
SELL YOUR ART ON THE NET. You are in artist, you make good art. It may be sculpture, painting, installations, illustrations, ceramics, craft work, etc., but you'd like to give up the day job and concentrate on art or you'd like to at least make a living from your work and pay the bills.  You have already done the rounds of the galleries and shops in your area. They either won't take on another artist, or they feel your work is not their style. Maybe they took a few pieces which didn't sell.  Not everyone lives near a large town where craft fairs take place, which are often scheduled for the month of December to catch the Christmas market. What are your options? We all know the power of the internet. We buy over the net, music, books, shoes, clothes, household items, etc. There are lots of people who make a living selling on the net. But it takes a lot of time and commitment to sell enough though the net before you can give up that day job and work full

What are you doing?

Here you can follow my thoughts and my art work. Hand made books and boxes and oil painting on canvas. My paintings are mainly abstract. The above is part of a triptych which I plan to show during the Parisot Art Exhibition in Tarn et Garonne, France, August 2012.
