I have been pretty inspired as of late to
get my art going as well. Making money is really essential right now, and so
the best way to do that is to show off more of my artwork, and do pics and get
them sold.
I talked with a friend who saw my art sales site, and gave
me some advice that I think I’m going to start following. Initially the work I
had up there is for the collectors, and the ones able to shell out the cash to
collect the artwork I draw. But I am finding that I do need to realize where we
are in the economy and that original fan art is a luxury and not a necessity.
But if I make it affordable, I will not have to feel like I’m making someone
choose between feeding their kids or picking up my awesome Teen Titans Robin
piece. So over the next few days, if you go to my site, you will notice subtle
changes. I will be integrating the Facebook page with my blog site, making it
easy to view my art work and easier to purchase it as well. Commission products
will be available as well. So look for that really soon as well.
One thing I’m going to be making sure I do, is put up more of
my sketches and artwork on a regular basis. I need to make sure I stay in you
guys faces, and build up a presence! My first con will be in July, over in San
Jose, and that gives me plenty of time to make sort of a name for myself, and
become that professional that I know that I can become. You’re not going to see
me take on lists of commissions on DA sites or any other site like that. I will
just do everything through my blog here, the art store blog, or the Facebook
page. I’m talkin streamlining it up!
Well with that said, I’m going to take off for now. I’m sure
you guys all see my Instagram feed, so be sure to take the time to check out my
pics, and follow my Instagram account. Make sure you follow @theswaggernauts as
well. They need some love. They are on a strange planet after all. See you guys
later!
