“You will never know how to start an art business before you start…” man I felt that. 😅
You aren’t just helping people with their art careers, you are helping them maintain their mental health. Thank you for your contribution to the world ❤ and your drawings aren’t bad 😂
Not only you are an artist but you’re also a mathematician! 🏆🤓👍
It's so nice to see someone bringing this to light! Thanks!! 😀
Any time! Glad you enjoyed it Susan!
But no joke, my brother-in-law was an amazing artist till he tried to make it a profession. Then he was cranking out 30 min projects and selling them for 100 euro each on e-bay. That's why I chose physiotherapie for a job, and keep my art for my free time.
I had to make comment on this video. I am just struggling with lot of mental issue in my job. By very nature, I like to expeiment things and want to work as a creative artists. But due to my financial condition, I have to work on a job. Where my boss scolds me, and from past few months I am feeling extremely demotivated. I was alwasy somebody who was excited to learn, create and listen to other artists. But now I feel I am not worth it. This video really helped me a lot to face the harsh reality of life. I would want to tell you that you are doing a great JOB. We really connect with what you tell. KEEP DOING THIS
My wife don’t allow me to have a haircut like you, I can never become succesful.
hahahah... behind every successful hairstyle is a shocked spouse
Don’t let that stop you!
@@PatrickSmithDries isnt successful either.😂
Nothing she can do about it if you just do it
Just within the first 4 minutes if listening, I’m grateful at this point that I’m at this stage of painting where that’s all I need to do..and experiment.
That said, when someone happens by my work, it often sells, but I’m not “out there” marketing myself; that’s daunting and I’m just happy painting now and learning from people like you. :) I’m grateful to paint and discover, even though I know I need to sell more.
I need to start doing my Art business and finish working on my 9-5 job!
Love how you get to the POINT real fast !!!! FANTASTIC !!! Great Job, loved the video !! A lot less bull shit !!! Thanks !
another amazing insight Dries... thanks for sharing...
I always enjoy your videos full of explosive ideas and your explosive, gorgeous, atomic bomb hair.
There is an expression that I love.
Do what you have to so you can do what you want to. I was an illustrator in Manhattan for many years and while I was not in love with the field, being an editorial artist helped me to become much more creative as a fine artist, which is what I do, now.
Even though I'm an old hand at this stage in the game, I am still learning and share your videos. Thank you, Dries!
$100,000? per year? man, some of us have way different goals. making 1/8 that would be good for me. heck 1/16 of that would help a lot to stabalise my life greatly. keep in mind some of us have disabilities and are trapped in part time minimum wage jobs to scrape together not quite enough to afford rent and food costs, in areas where there is no public transportation or health care suupport.
Aim for the stars and you might still end up at the moon...
It may sound weird, but making your disability into part of your art struggle story can help put a unique selling point on your art. my art isn’t bad but it’s not the best either, although it takes on a whole different meaning when people notice that I walk with a white cane because I’m visually impaired. Just saying :-)
Well this just summed up more about me than I had realised! Thanks Dries!
Wow, this is so good!
You are so welcome!
The only people making money from art are vloggers , art teachers, art supply shops , paint / canvas / brush manufacturers and art book publishers .
I have been wondering, will you get taxed on your inventory if you list your art and prices online? Say if you price your art at $5000 and you have 5 pieces, will you be taxed for $25,000 of inventory even if you have not sold any yet or maybe you have sold one or two pieces before at this price?
Thank you for making this video
damn, this hits good :D very on point video, this one. thank you :]
Thanks Marius, that's very nice to hear. Would be honored if you would take a minute to tell me what you specifically liked about this one? A specific tip, a story, the topic,...
Mental time and feeling have NO time. It depends on the mood at that moment which will change. Good and bad days.
I'm home, injured, and I have time to make art. I run into this self doubt about what to do with it though, what I think about my work, being worried about people seeing it. One day I feel purpose driven and amazing. The next day I can't see the potential and feel directionless. Mentally its exhausting.
My health insurance runs out in June because I am not going abck to my current job (I am a teacher). I would like to teach art classes outside of school while I vontinue crewting my own art. I am not sure how to get that going though...
Zig zigglar not a good source for learning how to sell, in 2 sentanses i can give better advice than all hi books put together.
1) it's a numbers game your gonna make no matter what anybody tells you
2) your looks and personality make the sale so always remember to have a natural smile on your face.
Don't let anything anyone tells you sink in, you're gonna make it in sales, i did. If i can do it, you can too.
Better than art is setting up a store in the right location, buy wholesale and sell at retail and make money all the time. That's what it's all about, you can always do art in your spare time.
Hey man where is the artist readiness checklist ?
Art the end of the video on the screen, just screenshot it, series of questions with result guidance
What is an armature artist?
It's so true, if you have impostor syndrome brute thought it. this is your sign.
I hired my 6 yr old to do my sales...So far I've made 1,20€ and a pack of gummie bears for a yrs worth of work 😂
Hell Yeah 😂 just a couple hundred thousand years of work and you can retire 🥳😂
10,000 hour rule
10.000 hour rule!
I needed to watch this at this exact moment of self doubt. I actually feel much better now, thank you!! ❤️🩹🩵
