Are you like a Picasso, Monet or Pollack, eagerly looking to have your work found?  If your passion is to the art you do everyday, but you just can’t seem to make a living, it can majorly stress you out. Have you considered selling your art?

There’s a lot of different places that you can go to as an artist to display your art or to just get your name out there. There’s a couple steps you need to ponder before determining which outlet is the best one for you to learn to sell art.

The first thing you need is a very clearly defined artistic identity. This is basically defining a brand based on yourself. In what medium do you hope to be known? You must have a memorable and recognizable persona before you think of selling your art.

It is also a good idea to set goals for yourself. What is the primary goal that you want to prove with your art? Do you pursue your art as a casual pastime or is it your life’s passion? Consider the following questions.

Who is the ideal customer that you want to sell your art  to? What is the specific demographic they fall into? You don’t have to limit yourself to selling locally. You can even sell your art on the internet.

Putting complete dependence on the internet can be bad due to its highly impersonal nature. You need to get out into the world and network with galleries and other artist to really become a well known artist.

Patience is a requirement, and you will certainly need lots and lots of it. Never ever give up, especially if you have made a commitment to your goal, your art is just like a flower, it takes time to blossom.

After finishing your early planning in the ways described above you should set goals and build your brand, and move forward with your marketing efforts and learning about how to sell your art.
