The Art of Selling Art


$ 100  

 

Ok, you’ve made a ton of art. You’ve gifted artworks to many of your friends and family who say, “You could sell this!”
Where do you start?
This workshop is for you if:
• You are an art maker who wants to sell their artworks
• You have sold a few pieces here and there and want to sell more
• You need ideas how and where to get started
• You are ready to release your artworks to the world
• You are curious about the art of selling art and if you are ready to sell

As a full-time art seller with the iconic Portland Saturday Market as well as other art fairs and also online, I am highly experienced with the considerations an artist needs to embrace when you are ready to sell. I have guided many artists toward finding the ways that are best for them to start selling their art. Just as our art is unique, so is our selling.

In this workshop we will cover the mindset of being an art maker to becoming an art seller. We will discuss a variety of considerations for selling art such as:
• Pricing
• Marketing
• Payment systems
• Where to sell
• Who to sell to
• Shipping and Packaging

By the end of this workshop, each participant will have at least one actionable step they can identify. You will leave with a solid idea of at least one Next Step to becoming a consistent art seller.

Supplies Needed  to bring for Class:

A journal or notebook and favorite pen.
