For artists, must know whether it is a validated income stream .

validated income stream must be

1. profitable

2. scalable

3. sustainable

Which is the best way?

1.  Is commissions the best way to support themselves. Other ways like Paetron, Gum Roll which may be the best way.

2.  Are they making full time income from Paetron?  It is ideal to have one source but this is risky. Best to invest time in around 2 sources of income.

3.  What changes you have to make. Go to Etsy, phone to ask successful ones about the 3 questions.

Some artists do succeed online, so results vary. No best way.

I just sold almost $600 worth of art prints at a local collectibles shop. I recommend hitting up local shops if you live in an area with places that are selling art. Be sure to have a labeled portfolio of what you’re selling, your price rates, and a set of instructions on how to display them

The best question you can ask yourself is, who will be my customer? I originally wanted to sell my art prints on Etsy. They were fashion type prints. I excitedly showed them to my neighbor who makes a good living online. He asked me some questions….. He said who would buy these? Why would they buy them? Where would they hang them? Would they have a need to purchase them again? How old is the person that is going to purchase them? I couldn’t answer any of these questions because I simply hadn’t thought about it. I just loved the drawings and I loved making them and I simply thought everyone else would too. I still opened my Etsy store 5 years ago but I don’t sell my art prints there yet. I’m working on a second shop for those and will be selling digital downloads of my art work. Anyway, my point is I think you have to research your market and niche down.

 @Anri  Most of my followers are friends that I already had or made as I continued to put my work out there. If you make genuine connections with people, they will often want to show their support. Keep putting yourself out there! Post and share, join communities on something like discord, and just keep at it! Eventually the support from your friends will help you be seen by more and more people. You got this! :D

The secret is to start by deciding who your target customer is and then asking them what problems they have that they need solved. And then figure out if your art can solve their problem. Ask what art they want you to make. Don't go about it backwards and make art and then try to convince someone to buy it. Stop being focused on yourself. Be focused on what your customer wants.
