As artists we know how to create art. We know how to paint, know how to write music, know how to dance, etc. But what usually isn't known is the BUSINESS of art.
Once art is created, how do you sell it? How do you market yourself? How do you become known? How do you make a living off of art? This channel seeks to help you learn how to make a business out of your art.

Putting in the WORK - Interview with @NickIsham - Song Writer and Producer

can sellers in the UK run an auction on facebook similar to eBay?
You could do it like I go over in this video. I don't know any way to set up facebook to be like ebay
This is too advanced for me.
I'm sure you can find someone to help you if you wish :)
Thank you!
Dammmn get to the point! I literally sat through this lol 😂 terrible
Wow, don't watch if you don't want to learn, it's pretty simple.
Thank you for your presentation, great ideas & guidance for a class. I recently opened my own studio and am starting after-school classes soon. My main concern is how to finish a project in two hours like the sample piece with the tree and moon, mostly how to paint the background and get it dry enough to do the tree on top in that time?
If international, important to mention the type of currency being used. For example: for US based auctions, Starting bid, $10.00 USD. Bid increase minimum, $2.00 USD over previous highest bid.
Thank you!!!! This is SO helpful. I just found your art business channel! I've been watching your art channel for a while and always appreciate your work and ideas. My art channel has been growing very slowly. I love creating but also want it to grow. Hopefully you can check out some of my videos and let me know your thoughts, maybe I'm needing a little extra something. But I will definitely start to put into practice some of your tips!!
Why do some artists act like jerks when you ask them about collaborating? Like I just talked to another digital artist about a collaboration and he just asked a bunch of questions that didn't matter, like bruh do you want to make an art piece together or not everything isn't about profit.
That was wonderful dear ,ty soooo much,would like to learn more from u
Thank you for your tips. I love your art and your perspective!
Very very helpful tips!! Thank you so much!
❤
I know there’s no straight answer for how to make a living as an artist, but how did you get to the point you’re making a full time + income from your art? My whole life I’ve been told it’s not possible, and now at 40 I wish I had ignored them and taken my art more seriously. My life’s at a fork in the road and I really want to throw myself into art (paintings/crafts/etc.) but wouldn’t know where to start. Have you made a video talking about how you started and progressed into a full time income? I’ll have to check! Thanks for giving me & us hope that it is possible!
is this same for Hawaii. ups. ? 15lbs. 34$$
Can't say, but shipping to Hawaii is not expensive in general :)
Great information 💜🪷
Thank you again 💜🪷
More great advice. I'm going to save this video for the times that phrase pops into my head. Thanks again 💜🪷🌺
I'm enjoying your videos and thank you for the awesome and amazing tips. I'm sure I will watch every single one of these videos 😀. I found you through an interview The Painted Dreamer did with Anna. I am so glad I found you. In addition I subscribed to this channel and Mixed Media Girl too. I'm loving the entrepreneurial part of the journey and of learning the steps & tips to grow. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and inspiration 💜🪷
Glad you like them!
Post artworks once a day?
Shipping costs is where I get stuck. It’s hard to know what each thing would cost to ship wherever the customer is. Can you just say the cost of the item, PLUS shipping? I guess that would get tricky with possibly not getting paid before you send it…
No, don’t use USPS. Even with insurance in times of losing your package or damage, they’ll deny your claim because as they put it - you have “no proof of value.”
I use USPS all the time, they very rarely lose packages
Have you done a video on doing an auction on You Tube? I watched this one. Have subscribed. This is a direction I am trying to move using Substack and UA-cam.
Helpful thanks. I am interested in a breakdown on how to teach a 4 session water colour class.
Thank you. I am brand new to this and want to work with seniors with Dementia. I am unsure how to charge and get my foot in the door.
Thank you for this!! I'm just starting getting out and feel like I don't belong bc I didn't have formal training..so thank you! I feel so much better because of this
So I live in the Midwest would you say the pricing for ups, usps and FedEx is about the same to get to either coast?
It's constantly changing and can vary depending on the city. Currently USPS ground is the best way to go for most pieces amd places, but that's a more recent thing :)
I really needed to hear this. I haven’t started my art journey yet. I’m still getting my supplies.
Great info! Thanks so much for sharing! One question... How are you pricing classes these days, as this video is several years old now. In my area, (FL) I think we are pricing our classes to low. One person where I work charges around $28.00 for the paint-n-sip class, and she gives everyone an apron to take home. Maybe it's the local economy driving her prices. We live by the beach so we get a lot of guests from other parts of the country stopping into our shop on any given day.
It will depend on materials but I've taught classes in FL recently where I charged about $350-400 for a day workshop
I'm so sorry people have been so critical of you. I found your video really helpful and encouraging <3
Do you think framed prints would count as media mail?
I have a bunch of stuff i want to sell and am thinking of taking the auction route. But instead of an actual auction, how about just taking offers and 'calling it' when I feel like it? The element of surprise would maybe be enticing and addictive.
Thank you so much for this message. I needed to hear this. Fortunately, I have very supportive people in my life that have witnessed my artistic journey from pen and ink to watercolor to finally becoming a stained glass fanatic selling many of my pieces. But carpel tunnel stopped that. Now I have found fluid art and it’s now my obsession. But, I’m not satisfied with my outcomes and everyone says they’re good! I totally lack in self confidence!!!! So, thank you so much for inspiring and supporting me as a new artist. ❤❤❤ ✌️💜😊
Nice one! Another excuse i hear from people is that trying to earn a living from music production is impossible due to being dominated by the elite. In due course i will prove them wrong
I feel like it has tripled since this!😅
It has... fuel, employee costs, and all the rest of inflation. Thanks, Mr. Biden!
Having difficulty pricing 4x4 Acrylic pet portraits
I taught art at the college level. I had students buy their own materials. That way they learn to navigate an art store , and can look at the varieties of materials available. I always provided a check list for the students.
Need help please==How did you create that grid of all your pieces? I know how to setup a folder with each photo & add the description info. I assume you created it as an event?
Thank you so much! I had a very successful auction!!!
Yes a step by step on teaching an acrylic glass would be great
A checklist
Looking forward to our one to one
your volume......can't hear you.
How can we make our art look that professional? I've tried hanging. Added a black background. Added tripod and lighting and even tried mock painting scene none looked good let alone professional.
thank you for the simple instructions. I like how you break it down nice and easy,, Thanks. Happy Painting!!!
What do you recommend be a website name your name or an actual business name?
Can you go more into detail about the different techniques you spoke on?
Great advice 😀
I agree, one's mindset is key. Some people do the best they can, under minimal circumstances. My sales were increasing every year until COVID. Since then nothing. Now will the oil companies increasing their already greedy profit margins, it's next to impossible to travel to art shows. Many people really are doing their best. It doesn't stop me, it just makes me re-think how I can expand my horizons. NEVER GIVE UP. (Yet, keep your day job.)
Marcy thanks for sharing this wonderful information. So happy I meant you.
How's this selling when it's free once u put it out? I wanna be able to charge people to view my drawings
Thanks. I love you videos. Your information is very helpful.
