    An artist friend told me she sold a piece of art and 5 years later she was walking down the street on trash night. The couple had broken up and moved out. There was a huge pile of furniture and stuff and on top was the painting. She took it and resold it.

    I've had much better sales since I stopped using galleries. It makes my work more affordable and accessible. If you're in art for the money... Idk what to tell you. The look on someone's face when they see something they really love is priceless.

      Sad that you can’t get into galleries without already being a successful artist that sells and has an audience. Then, why would I even need to give gallery a cut? If I already sell and have to have large social media followers, I’d rather keep 100% profit and not share my $ with gallery. Why do they deserve a cut, if I still have to bring my customers? I’d rather sell on my website and not give parasidic galleries a penny!

    In principle, you buy art to be part of your family, heirs perceive it over time as a member of the family, it belonged to my grandparents, it belonged to my aunt, etc.
    Of course, over time you sell certain pieces, usually the ones you don't like, or which belonged to a relative you didn't care for, or you simply need the money :)
    The Ikea policy is based on another strategy that the ordinary artist cannot put into practice, the Ikea policy applies to the artist only when his value increases on the market, and a customer wants to review a piece he bought, when he had a lower share , at the price since then, deducting a percentage for the return :)

    OK, my takeaway is that I should make quality and timeless art that will hold its value and appreciate enough to cover the expenses of the secondary market, or, make art that a buyer 'consumes' by buying it because they love it - with no expectations for resale. Sounds
    good to me.

    6:12 each one of my pieces i know for a fact, working on one at a time takes at least 2 months to complete. The more i work on at the same time doubles the time frame so the hourly rate as i am a aspiring artist would come out i would think unreasonable however im conflicted on still how much is reasonable considering all my original pieces are One of a kind. So if one should purchase One they'd be the only one to own it in the world and i do not duplicate my work and some are akochi info on our world and the world of the universe NASA would even be intreaged to even just look at just one would take anyone to a different place

    6:00 when you have the option of selling prints there is no such thing as a ridiculous price. You don't want to pay the price? Get a print. I don't know of an art platform that doesn't offer a wide choice of prints with various sizes framed or unframed. If someone wants an original they have to commit. If not a print is a perfect option.

  • @calebplumleeoutdoors

    Regarding the "art buyback" idea. I know an artist who doesn't buy their art back, but WILL allow the customer to bring it back and the artist will RESELL it for a negotiated commission. No cost to the artist, but the buyer gets THE best representative to sell it again.

  • @bijouxcreateur94
    @bijouxcreateur94 10 месяцев назад

    8:50 exactly. You don't waste an original piece for less than the best customer. That one piece goes to the best customer and not the average customer. Average customers who are not serious have plenty of choices with different sized prints framed or unframed for a few hundred dollars.

    interesting logical advice, especially in regards to pricing particularly how the so much space costing so much money it defiantly doesn't work well when you get down to the smaller sizes your not making any money at all if your selling through somewhere which takes commission out the sale... also finding a fair price was a good point... building it seems building a group of collectors or following and then directing to a website would probably be a better outcome long term but then you also have website fees to contend with...

    So, if I must sell my art on my own to establish the value of my paintings for the gallery, plus I must bring my own social media audience to sell, then why would I need a middle man? What’s the reason to give some gallery a cut? I could just sell it on my own with those pre-requisits. So, what’s the benefit to giving a gallery a cut? Why? Thank you!

    • @andrewrea2799

      Getting into any gallery, just to be in a gallery is worthless, but getting into a good gallery that wants to partner with you and support your growth as an artist will take your art farther than you can do by yourself. Galleries that want to see a sales, exhibition and social media history are just making sure that you’re worth the investment. Likewise, you the artist should be checking out the gallery. Are they organized and well run? How do they support the artist grow both financially and art historically?

      @@mikenoneofyourbusiness7122 Not really true you just have to not be star struck when interacting with someone, I mean would you like if someone groveled in your presence .... "excuse me my lord I have come to see thee, kisses shoes"....In my case many of the clients of mine are very high profile but they didn't even know I was homeless for years because I treated them with respect and didn't see myself as lower ask for what my work is worth and still held myself to a standard. In one case I was doing architecture photos of a large company's building (still homeless, a vagrant with nothing but a borrowed d3000) during which the CEO while walking out to his waiting car / limo walked over and greeted me and ask what was so interesting, I explained that it looked like a lot of work had been put into it by the developers. And that it looked like one I would design. He ask to see the photo which I showed then immediately ask if I had a card, which I did. (...some printed at the public library on a 10 pack of scrapbooking cardstock.) It was all casual except for me addressing him as sir. Now each of his thirty buildings I've been the photographer, And I visit to discuss books we've read. It is the fact you do things with discretion and that you know how to meet someone in a casual situation and on their level of intelligence. Which is funny because I'm a introvert. So no you just have to be kind and semi intelectual as most people at the top don't have people like that.

    There are no similar artists in my case. I build art guitars with resin, LEDs, food samples. I am a proper guitar luthier (still at school, 4th year), they are instruments you can play, but I sell them as sculptures, since regular guitarists rather buy an old Fender with a bend neck for crazy amounts.

    My art that I have not sold or revealed yet but plan to do so within the month, is more of a craft than it is art. I make them with other elements creating vibrant colors and my interpretations. I cannot put a price point on them but I was hoping someone can help me... it took me months of trial and error to come up with the variety of pieces but now that I know the concept, it can take as little as 5 minutes to create one. How do I put a price on something like this?
    I don't want to sound boastful in any way, but something like this has not been done in the way I've created but once it hits the market, I fear that they can be easily created and I fear for a saturation in that others will copy, create and commercialize it in their own way and I'll probably be priced out at some point. It's not something I can put a patent on either... any ideas as to how to go about a new business venture, however short lived it might become? I've been struggling for months on how to go about it and I'm desperate to figure this out.... in fact, I've become homeless living in my car and whichever friend can accommodate me at times at this point... please, any insight will be greatly appreciated...

Take this piece home and enjoy it. It is yours.

  • @calebplumleeoutdoors
    @calebplumleeoutdoors 7 месяцев назад

    Reminder that galleries take 40-60%... your art is worth what someone is willing to pay. Galleries want someone who is ALREADY successfully selling art (and likely don't need galleries anymore)
    Don't get discouraged. Most famous artists (before social media) made a rich friend or contact that bought a piece for lots of money and then talked about it with other art collectors... thats it. Thats the secret.
    That or money laundering. Lots of that too

    7:40 No. All you need is to check YES when the platform you upload asks you if you want to sell prints. Check yes on the box. There is only one original. If someone isn't serious they should not get it. What your stature is does not matter. You want to spend a hundred or two hundred dollars and you can get a print. No need to ever waste an original for a non appreciating customer.

What to do with it 18 years is irrelevant because it served you by making you happy that long. People change and their styles and decor changes so it's ok to change the art around. Art buy back?
