IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR ARTISTS 🧑🎨
I sold two paintings this week, which is awesome. I think what often goes undiscussed though, is how many times you need to share your art for it to find a forever home. The simple answer, is however many it takes 🖼️
I'm a career artist, and my art doesn't always, or often, sell the first time I share it. Sometimes I have to share my art 5, 10, 20, 50, maybe even 100 times for it to find a home...and sometimes it still doesn't. Social media has us so focused on what's new and exciting, that many of us have been lead to believe we can only share something once, and then we need to do the next big new thing. These standards are foolish and unrealistic. Quite honestly, it's killing the culture in some ways. Share your art as often as you want. In fact, it would probably serve you well to share it more. If you've shared it 100 times, share it 101. The truth is, it just hasn't fallen on the eyes of that special person that will connection with it...but you only need one. That next time you share it, that could be the time...and if it's not, share it again ❤️
