The people that spread the word.




Self-understanding is freedom, the realization that it is always up to you build your success.
Once we comprehend this we will not rely on others to open doors for us or romance ourselves with the myth of the knock on the door to be instantly discovered.
Our Art career is our responsibility not someone else, therefore we must apply ourselves to build our Artistic success and know that we are also taking our true fans on this journey with us.
Always be open with your true fans, let them into your Art journey and tell them your story and get to know them by building relationships.
These are the ones who will buy your Art and support you both financially and emotionally in your Art journey.
Never underestimate your true fans they aren't just buying art, they are buying into you as well, they become emotionally involved with you in this journey, it can become quite personal.
If you make a promise to them, make sure you keep it and if you can’t be open and honest about it and explain why you were unable to keep it but do not do this to many time because they will leave, no one likes being let down.
This can be incredibly personal, so do not let these people down because it can impact negatively on your future sales.
These are the people that spread the word about your Art, they infect others with their passion and love for your Art works.
Appreciate them they are your true fans.

Why don't people want to pay what my art is worth?

                                               Why don't people want to pay what my art is worth? I keep reading on an artists group pages again and again the same old question, “ I cannot sell my art for what it is really worth?” This is always a question raging in the art world, sort of the never ending question. Every artist has an opinion about this and it sometimes sounds like whining and of coarse they do not want to hear any opinions that differ from the fact, that their art is worth far more than they can sell it for. Of coarse my opinion comes from my experience with Galleries and collectors and of coarse artists and you may not agree with me and that is fine and I hope I do not upset to many people but lets take a look at the reality of the situation. First lets establish this that the price an artist can ask for a painting has nothing ...

Your weakest skill, sets the height of your success. If you don't know your best skill, you had better find out your weakest skill, because its the weakest skill that holds you back. As Artists we so often coast along depending on our strongest skills to get us through, never realising that it is the weakest skills that hurt us the most. Now I have learned what not to do, because as an Artist I never did this but after years in Galleries I wish I had, it was a weak skill that determined the height of my success. Question, “From your last exhibition or showing, what was the worst part?” Now you cannot criticise anyone or anything, this is all about you. I don't want to hear about the terrible Gallery, terrible economy or the terrible public who just didn't appreciate your work. No, no blame on anything, just talking about you. What could you have done better? As a gallery person I now sit on the other ...
