If you are an artist looking to learn how to sell your art online, you can get up and running in a few simple steps: Choose your format: originals or reproductions.

Instructions Roll It Up. Carefully roll your painting and secure with a rubber band on each end. Use a Mailing Tube. Place the painting into a mailing tube. Add Your Labels. Place your labels on the outside of the tube securely with tape, and youre ready to ship!

How to Safely Package Your Sold Painting Make Sure the Painting Is Actually Finished. Arrange Postal Insurance if Needed. Supplies Required. Baking Paper to Protect the Surface. Bubble Wrap Around the Painting. Place the Painting in the Box. Make the Painting Secure. Insert a Letter of Thanks and Certificate of Authenticity.

Bloggers make good money talking about their life passion. It can take a year or two to start generating an income, but its definitely possible.

You can sell directly through your social sites such as Instagram and Facebook and direct potential customers to your website so they can learn more about you and your artwork. While many artists promote their work on Instragram, dont miss out on the opportunity to get your work on Pinterest.
