Got a plug from my cousin Lisa, thanks! http://artlook.typepad.com/a_look_at_art_design/2008/04/artist-ted-miku.html
So as a quick update, there will be 5 new paintings added to the website this weekend.
Getting into the real discussion here is my new theories on making it in the art world. So that in and of itself is a big statement. I live in Enfield, CT.. possibly the worst place ever for art. Also, I only paint part time, not dedicating all my time to making it.
The idea is to at least begin to build a client list. This means selling work cheap and to those around me who know me and enjoy my work. Then you give those individuals 5 business cards to go along with the painting, so that if friends of theirs say “o0oh, I love that, the client gives them a business card.
So theres one basic idea. The other idea is internet saturation. This is of course not ideal because the market is so fragmented, but it will give me solid feedback and global exposure.
So those are some quick ideas. I will be blogging here about the progress of my art marketing and how well I am accomplishing my goals. I also am going to do 3 VERY large pieces soon. It’s just a matter of what size and how to go about it. Should be fun.
