I have written more extensively on techniques or making money with art. As an artist it is easy to focus on this aspect. Allow me to recap more dedicated articles to this question you will have interest in.
Among the most critical aspects is knowing how to build public relations as an artist. Add to this knowing the best places to sell art is important. These two elements can vary from location to location depending upon where you live.
The acronym NFT stands for non fungible token. How is this applied to art? In layman’s terms it creates a way to mark and track a piece of digital art as being the original.
This is done through a unique block chain that is attached to it. Nevertheless the process does not prevent the art from being copied.
A trend today can be found that is not unique from history, yet its volume is unlike any other period of time. An artist that is seeking out clients for art commissions can be found everywhere.
Notably these artists are often located on social media. This focus brings a few questions to mind that beg to be answered.
Many wood products and finishing come with an expectation of a smooth wood texture. When a project is complete some can feel as slick as glass.
Is this always desired or wanted? How smooth should the wood texture be? While there is no universal answer for this, there are guidelines one can follow.
Baroque Art held its origin within Rome. The reason for its birth though is a bit unique from other arts. Where other forms of art held a more natural evolution, Baroque was more engineered.
The purpose of Baroque Art was to act as a counter movement by the Catholic Church against the Reformation. It was a statement to create influence and project power.
A younger artist questioned me as to what was the best place to sell art. The answers may be surprising but much will depend upon your local area.
New independent artists have the most difficult time. The locations I will present is geared more towards this kind of artist. Yet they are also great for the more experienced as well.
Figurative Art uses real life objects to create a likeness of it somewhere between realism and abstraction. In other words the real life objects will hold an abstract expression of what the artist creates.
Making art with wood is amazing. The reason why it is so good is due to its versatility. It is a dynamic medium which can be typed as 2d, 2.5d, and true 3d art.
Few art mediums allow for this kind of range in application. I wish to delve into simple applications and then move into more complex ways to use art with wood.
