How do i sell my art work?

Question

I do Tanjore painting and other art work

Answer 1

where u r located?

how many tanjore paintings u have ready?

'other works' means what ? u must describe the style...realistic, abstract, modern...similar to tanjore?

as suggested above make a site and upload the paintings, check what other artist do and try to follow a method which is most used.

print a catalogue with reproductions of paintings, your biodata, details of exhibitiobs held, awards etc. here too check catalogue of others.

get a list of indian art dealers, art galleries and mail the catalogue. u will have to  do some marketing for yourself. if this is the only profession u have choosen, u will have to overcome some hurdles, get some other artist to have a look at your work and ask for fair and frank opinon... get local new papers review your work..... and take opnions in the stirde... it is  of this profession.... improve... if u take the things in right spirit

Answer 2

Many things you can try, but as this business will teach you, there are no guranteed methods I'm afraid. One way that works for one person will not necessarily work for another. One good thing to start off with is get your work online. Even if it's just on a social network site like Deviant art, or Myspace even. I've managed to find work and get commissions through Myspace remarkably. It's all down to how you use it. Basically you need to get your work seen. You aslo need to pluck up the nerve to taking your work to galleries. Look for galleries in your own area or those that are in an acceptable travelling distance, give them a call, and arrange to go in and have them look at your work. Be prepared for people slatting your work, we all get it. You need to grow a thick skin in this business.:-)

Hope this helps start you off.

best of luck.
