Dockside

9″ x 12″ Watercolor and ink on paper

“Dockside” sold within 30 minutes of posting it on Instagram today, it was still wet. If that doesn’t make an artist ecstatic, I don’t know what will! I’ve been very blessed lately, my art sales have been consistent and growing. I really believe in positive thinking, karma, and manifesting what you want, and I also believe in my art!

I put my soul into each piece. Sometimes I have no idea what a piece is about, but when the person that connects with it sees it for the first time, I get goosebumps!

Since in-person art shows are still not an option right now, I depend on Instagram and Facebook to promote my work. I’ve had great sales on my Fine Art America and Redbubble sites, but I make very little money on those sales. Still, I think getting my name and designs in front of people all over the world has some benefit, I hope so anyway! Etsy has also started to work for me, but I only upload smaller items that are easy to ship from that store.

I’ve had several people ask me about my experience with various apps and sales platforms and I am always happy to share with fellow artists, we have to support and encourage each other, now more than ever!

      Thanks, Anthony! It’s a daily commitment and it has taken a couple of years to see real progress, but I sure do love waking up to “you made a sale!” Instagram is pretty simple once you get the basics down, and try to post regularly, also, like and comment on other peoples posts, building relationships is key! I want to start doing more video, they say that is the future! All the best to you my friend!
