How can I make money off my art?

How can i make money from my fine art?

  • hi, i need some extra cash what are the best sites i can use to get commissions or create pieces to target specific buyers?

  • Answer:

    you could sell your work in galleries you can paint in an illustrative/graphic art style they are pretty popular if you do a few you are happy with photograph them and take photos into galleries and maybe one of your paintings. show them what you do and you'd be surprised how many people would sell your work for you they will also advise you on the price you should charge and they wont mess you about because they want to make profit from it as well they charge commission usually 20-40% its worth it though because they also give you advice on colours styles and subjects (the subject of the painting) that are sellind well at certain times because its like thne fashion industry its constantly changing with the seasons like summer would be bright colours etc You can set up your own website or again with a gallery most of them have sites that catalogue all current work and would be more than happy to put in a foot note that you accept commissions. hope it helped a bit.

You coud paint what really appeals to you and then sell product with that as an illustration on www.zazzle.com - you can get a free gallery and make tshirts,prints,cars and lots of other fun things. What you sell it for is up to you. Zazzle does all the production ,despatch and framing etc and pays you the difference between your price and the production costs by Paypal. I use it myself. Keith
