So I can draw, very well. However I need to make money like anyone else. I have a huge portfolio actually going into my 3rd portfolio. I want to sell my art, market my art, get paid to do nothing but art. However, I don't know how, I don't know what I should charge for my art or where to sell my art. I'm the grunt who can do the work, I don't know about galleries, or marketing online. I don't know where to publish my work to get the most attention, I just know how to do the work. I've had some very very very minor success on Craigslist. However craiglist feels like i'm scrapping the bottom of the barrel and begging for sales. I wish I could just do the work and someone else take care of selling my works and finding me new clients. I don't want to do the work and all the selling and marketing. I've tried websites with no success, even here i've noticed no one is looking at my work any more. I've almost talked my self out of drawing again and again, each time finding the call to draw my only reason to stay. I used to have days off from work and play video games, and if I didn't play video games I felt like I wasted my time off! How stupid does that sound for a 35 year old man to say but it was true. When I had busy weekends and no time to play I felt like when I got back to work I had wasted my free time and now it was too late. About 2 years ago I replaced video games with drawing, and get that same feeling when I return to work. I'm off 4 days a week, I work 12 hour shifts and get paid pretty well. When i'm off if i don't do at least 2 drawings a day I feel like I wasted my time off. When I'm at work all I can think of is getting back home to draw something else. Drawing has replaced my video game addiction, now drawing is my addiction. At least in drawing I truly feel I have accomplished something when I am done. Video games only left me feeling empty inside with nothing to show for it. However I hear artist making $3000 a month in sales from drawing or painting, and when I look at a lowly $25 I made for a month of work I feel like I wasted my time. I know money shouldn't equate to the value of what you do but It would be nice to see a huge pay off in the end. Also realizing my work is to me great but maybe to others not so great. Even I in 2006 thought I was a great artist, and today I see works I did from that era and realize it's good work but not great work. Even the work today that again I believe is great, I know given time will be just good work again. I hope to keep mastering how to draw, I refuse to move on to color until I truly master pencil art. I may never master it but I will enjoy it.
