Earning From Your Art

Yes, artists can — and do make money from their art.

Easy? No. Possible? Absolutely.

Earning a living as an artist of any medium is possible. 

There are artists in the iCreateDaily community who sell their work, both through commissioned work and the selling of original art. 

Those who stick with it while continually learning and growing in their craft as well as the art of business, are those who succeed at reaching their goals.

Of the many businesses of any kind in all industries, there are more who fail than make it. Because being an entrepreneur is hard, and there are no guarantees.

But as with any business endeavor, the more you work at it the more the revenue grows, and that’s the only way it grows: through consistent persistence over the long haul.

The good news is that when you love your work it never feels like work! So wouldn’t you rather work the hardest at something you love doing? You’re going to be doing it anyway; creating anyway… working anyway. 

To make money as an artist simply begins by creating as you love to while learning and working at the job of business building. One step at a time… one canvas at a time… one page at a time… one song at a time… one shawl at a time. Daily.
