Is Daily Paintworks a good place to sell my paintings?
Meet Carol Marine. a great artist who started painting small paintings. She slowly developed a following of others looking to sell their paintings paintings and created The Daily Paintworks website so that they could promote and sell their work.
They offer a subscription service for $12.95 a month, and you can post as many paintings for sale as you want. Anybody can subscribe and post their work for sale. If you have paintings that you're interested in selling, this can be a good option.
However, no matter where you try to sell your art, you're going to have to do quite a bit of work to get internet traffic to go looking for you. Right now Daily Paintworks already has hundreds of artists selling their work on the site.
Anybody can subscribe and post their work for sale. If you have paintings that you're interested in selling, this can be a good option.
If you want your painting to stand out, it is going to take some effort. You're going to have to figure out ways to crack the code to get your art filtered to the top of the page where more people will see it and might purchase it. It's like going to a gallery that has fifty artists in it already, and you're the low person on the totem pole, and the gallery owners are promoting their highest selling artists the most.
The nice thing about getting on that website is that it does have established traffic. I think it's a good place to start selling but I would encourage you not to make it the only place you're selling. Remember that posting your paintings won't turn into sales automatically. You're going to have to find a way to build a following of people that love your paintings.
