Category: Selling Your Art

A few weeks ago I was meeting with some artists and photographers and the topic came up as how to choose print sizes. What is better, printing your images large or small and how do you know what sizes are in demand by your customers.

Getting your work in front of a mobile audience is more crucial then before. More people will be viewing your site on a mobile device as people use their iPhones, iPads and Android powered tablets so why not make their experience as enjoyable and easy as possible.

If you have a website then it may not be enough. How long has it been since it was designed. Does meet today’s standards? And if you don’t have a website to promote yourself or your work, what’s the deal?

Many artists want to sell their work and are looking for ways to promote with little to no budget for marketing. Facebook has a great feature which is independent of member’s profile page. If you are using Facebook, why not create a Facebook fan page devoted to your work.

Did you know you can print high resolution images posted on the Library of Congress website? Not only can you do this but it is free and you can make money from the prints you produce too.

If it is important the print number and signature be visible on your giclee print, placing it on the actual artwork in the right or left corner will probably be the best option. Read this post to learn why.

Have you wondered what to charge for your prints. A few artists share with us how they decide on pricing prints they sell online and offline.

Present yourself in a neat manner, force yourself to wear a genuine 10 hour smile, and meet your customers as they approach or pass. Whether you are successful or not, you must portray that you are.

Way before starting FinerWorks, one of the areas of printing I researched for myself for my digital artwork was different ways to offer prints to my buyers. Which should I offer: giclee or lithograph prints?
