I finally listed some things today! Including this photograph! See more here:
How I did it: Well with the right connections, which I found through word of mouth, I sold my artwork design to a t-shirt company. I submitted about 5 different designs and they bought one from me for $300. No royalties, but hey it was totally worth it. It was the #1 seller on the website for about a week. I have never went to art school, I took art in highschool but have had no additional training. So don't think you can't do it, it is possible. I had a very good mentor that encouraged me since I was young to keep me doing art even when I felt I was not going anywhere with it. I am glad I stuck through and did it. I have not sold a piece since than, but just the one time was a wonderful life experience. I hope I have helped encourage you to follow your dreams and NEVER EVER GIVE UP! We were meant to live for so much more. :)

Well, this came quite as a surprise, but I’ve sold two photo’s today! The same one twice, with an option for another one, but I’m amazed, this is so cool! And I’m really honored that people want to put my art on their walls! Wow…
So I’ve got my first ever photography exhibition, at work, and the first reactions are very positive. Displaying my art is one thing, now it would be nice if I could sell some too. But that was not my main goal though, however, if I want to take it to the next level and be more serious about my art (paintings and photos) then actually being able to sell some of it would be major!

I’ve had four previous attempts at setting up different types of online shops for my artwork. I never had anything concrete enough to get it to work together, it was always a mish-mash of ideas and no recurrent theme, not even a consistent working method! After learning the hard way so many times, I believe I’ve finally hit on an idea that looks aesthetically pleasing and is also commercial enough to sell. I want to be up and running by Christmas at the earliest. If I’ve also made a sale before then, all the better. I need to get my stock organised and ready first, and have all the right equipment/supplies in place.
mrshennejoyner is freaking out
I am finally restocking my etsy shop. Should have a whole mess of new artwork up soon. (_)
reecho311 is trying to finish her horrible, no good, very bad essay
I’d have to make something worth selling though.
And then figure out a way to sell it, lol.
Not impossible, I guess, just intimidating.
nopurplestuff There is no try!
I was paid to take graduation photos of my friend. It felt pretty great! I am not sure if this counts or not, so I’ll still leave this goal up. I think it would be pretty special to sell an actual photo print or a ceramic piece.
One of my friends saw this and asked me to paint her something now. I am getting excited that there may be more people out there who would be interested in my artwork!
