Best selling painting, Artist M K Quadri

In this article, we’ll talk about how to sell artwork. Plus, what are the important points to keep in mind while creating a painting for sale purposes?

 

If you are a regular practising artist and you have a huge collection of your artworks. It is time to sell these artworks. You are living in the era of cut-throat competition. I know it sounds terrible, but being a good artist and creating awesome paintings are not enough. One artist should be a good salesman also. You have to think about promoting your artworks on different platforms.

 

How do promote artworks to get the largest sales?

 

The promotion should be on a regular basis on social media platforms. I know you are aware of the most famous social media platforms. You must visit art exhibitions running in different art galleries and art museums. In art seminars and exhibitions, artists interact with contemporary artists and art collectors. It enriches your knowledge and people start recognising you. In this way, you get a chance to showcase your artwork also. In the beginning, try to do group exhibitions. Take part in different national level and international level art competitions.

 

Art galleries are shifting to online mode. Most famous art galleries are running their business online. You must keep visiting these art galleries’ websites. Explore on different sites what type of art is getting the highest sales in the market. Keep your eyes on the latest trend and create your artwork as per the need of the market.  Art collectors are looking to buy artworks direct from the artist. Enlist your artworks on different e-commerce sites. Nowadays interior designers are using painting prints instead of buying expensive original paintings. Get good photographs of your artworks so that you can offer prints also to your buyers.


If you work hard in the right direction you will definitely get your first sale very soon. I hope this blog will help you to work in a proper way. Still, if you have any questions please ask me in the comment section.
