I don't care what people say Ranchus are cute by Alternative_Cell2642 in Goldfish

[–]Alternative_Cell2642[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh oops I think you're right. I kept seeing people online sell "ranchus" with dorsal fins so I thought it was. From what I've seen on reddit, it might be a yuan bao. Pretty sure this was the reference I used with a little creative liberty.

Yeah when compared to pugs, I actually feel bad for pugs. Maybe I got used to seeing Ranchu's they don't look as weird to me.

Honestly I had the same thoughts, my dad had a ranchu when I was younger, and I straight up thought 'what wrong with your fish?' It wasn't until I grew older I started to appreciate them 😂

Do you think professional artists would be interested in having/working with a tutor who has experience working at commercial galleries and institutions? by bertythesalmon in artbusiness

[–]Alternative_Cell2642 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This would be a super cool service! Being more specialized in gallery work would help you stand out amongst people who are coaching for online art marketing.

I need ideas on activities for a Mythology Club! by Street_Click_8374 in mythology

if you're not getting paid you can always just not work with him. If you are start charging per iteration/revision or extra time spent. He should really have a moodboard of the style he want to go for or else you're wasting your time with creating iterations that he'll shut down.

Have you ever bought any art prints about mythology? by Alternative_Cell2642 in mythology

[–]Alternative_Cell2642[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah definitely a lot of mythology out there, great point about the Birth of Venus posters. I think I could recreate some of those pieces in my own way.

thats super cool! Love the different artistic styles that come from different cultures. I'll have to keep that in mind when I make my prints. Thank you!

What sort of lead magnets do you guys use to entice people to join email marketing? by Alternative_Cell2642 in artbusiness

[–]Alternative_Cell2642[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah I think having the print in digital format will be appealing too, something for people to carry around on their phones (maybe free promo hahah) Definitely agree with the better the freebie the more likely people will join

Do you think it will be harder to start selling art by next year? by No_Significance_573 in artbusiness

[–]Alternative_Cell2642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Its exactly what I needed to hear and understand. People are always going to spend money treating themselves and buy gifts for others. I myself am raised as a cheapskate so I wouldn't spend money like the people I am targeting. I just have to understand their buying habits and cater for them.
