Want to sell your art? Take a look at the three new artist promotion articles. From MySpace to business cards, they’ve got you covered.
Hello everyone,
If there’s one thing I really needed when starting out in the art business it was guidance from a pro. That’s what the three new articles here are all about!
Don’t miss How to Promote Your Paintings http://paintingdrawing.suite101.com/article.cfm/how_to_promote_your_paintings and More Ways to Promote Your Art http://paintingdrawing.suite101.com/article.cfm/more_ways_to_promote_your_art for the basics on how to start a career in the art world. From networking to business cards and traditional portfolios to online portfolios you will find some great info and links to help you through the process of self promotion.
Next, take your networking to the next level by checking out MySpace for Artists http://paintingdrawing.suite101.com/article.cfm/myspace_for_artists . If you think MySpace is for teens and tweens, think again. This article will enlighten you to the pros of joining to this worldwide community.
Here is a sound bite from the article:
"Networking
MySpace is a great place to network because it lets you make connections with people all around the world with its nifty options for your personal page.
- The bulletin option is great for letting others know about art shows you will be in, contests you have entered, sales, announcements, and more. Bulletins also allow others to leave messages for you.
- Not only do visitors get to see your artwork but they also get to learn a little more about you as a person by viewing your profile.
- A networking option lets you add up to three network affiliations so that others can find you.
- You can join groups to network with others. Literature & Arts has 34015 groups alone.
- You can search classifieds for job in the art world that are automatically targeted to your zip code.
All of these options can add up to people who want to buy your art."
Till next time,
Alina
