Art Marketing Tips – Launch A Successful Business Selling Your Art By Ralph Serpe
Define your goals and get organized – What are your goals as an artist? Do you hope and dream to one day have your artwork displayed in a museum or do you just want to sell enough of your art to make a good living? Defining your goals is an important first step toward your success as an artist. Realize your long-term goal and then set reasonable and attainable short-term goals.
Build your confidence – You need to believe in yourself and your artwork. If not, your marketing efforts will be less effective as the fear of rejection will hold you back. You have to learn to take risks. No one is going to come knocking at your studio door. Get out there and meet new people, network with other artists, open a booth at an art show, etc.

So how does an artist get out of the studio and connect with other artists, gallery owners and the general public?
