My mission is to help you make money as a professional artist.OK you can paint well.You must believe that to even think about a professional career.But you can paint very well and do it as a rewarding past-time.In spite of a widely held belief your artwork doesn't sell itself.If it did, you'd be able to hang your work up anywhere and people would buy.You should know better than that.You've done your apprenticeship.You know how to manage time.You also know how to be productive.In other words make the best use of whatever time you have available.You've learnt how to sell.But that's not all you know!You have a contact list of potential and actual buyers.You've created a simple website as a way to help develop your contact list.You also understand pricing and know the importance of framing.With all that in place your career foundation has been laid!Now you are ready for a professional career.Will you do what everyone else does? I can help you in a way you would never have previously believed possible.BUT if you do NOT have ALL those preliminary steps in place.Your career will NOT be as successful as you would like.For example improved exhibition sales will probably NOT happen.Your income will NOT compound as your prices rise with additional sales.And you'll get very few referrals to increase the works you can sell.There will be stagnation or even a decline!You may even have experienced good sales in the past.That doesn't mean they'll continue as the world has changed.There is less discretionary income, so new things need to be done.The number of works other artists do affects your place in the art market.
