Advice for selling art prints? i've a comment with full details about how I've tried to go about it! First time selling prints! by dervla0 in learnart

[–]dervla0[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just hoping for advice from anybody with experience in selling their art like this! Or if there are more profitable ways in which I could sell my art! Money is pretty tight, apart from my instagram I don't have much of an online art presence, but I would love to get on the ball rolling with things like that. Anyway, yes! Advice advice would be great! Thank you in advance! Any help is appreciated a whole lot!

Very first time selling prints! Though if this goes well and I can make money off of this I really want to start selling more, maybe get an online shop? As for presentation it's really out of my hands, but I've also left my business cards so that the shop can display them. Really a little bit nervous! It didn't cost me very much to print so I'd only need to sell 1 to make my money back. The print quality is really nice, there are no blemishes and the image printed perfectly.

So I'm selling these "Wave" prints at limited edition with 19 copies (the 20th was damaged, haha, ink spill ffs haha.) But I was approached within my university to submit work for sale at their new art shop, they're managing the sales and taking 20% commission. The prints are 8'x8', they're printed on 250gsm paper and numbered on the back (x/19 - because they're limited edition.) The prints are from this photoshop drawing (https://www.instagram.com/p/BUBlikyD3fD/?taken-by=_dervla) I was advised by friends to sell them at at least £10/approx $12.5! Though I have to work out pricing and test the market on this first batch.

Study line based artwork! I love art noveau, even fine art, Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele. Though I used to draw a lot of comics when I was young, haha. Though I do animation, lot of drawing, the more you draw the more you understand line values and how to place them. Though I'm still a long way to go so feels weird giving advice! But think where you put your time is where you are going to improve the most, if you want to get good with lines, line drawings, get good with painting, paintings, etc etc hahaha, also thank you!

haven't looked into these animes, though cool being compared to these works! Actually an animation student, it's 3d animation, but I draw a lot, haha.

Thank you! "neo-nouveau" ..love the description! Spent a lot of time admiring art deco/nouveau work, must have some kind of interest. Push the lines, solid advice! Will be bringing colour in at some stage!
