What I did to become a professional artist

Very often an artist doesn't know what to do to come to a specific result. Read my journey over 9 months: daily labour in several directions. Working on a range of paintings, working on my brand and working on promotion.

A step by step plan to become a marketable professional artist. I did all of this in 9 months of work.

  1. I opened a new social network account, subscribed to experts in my niche all over the world, watched and analysed their work and account management, saved interesting ideas, watched world trends in interior painting.
  2. I organised an environment for myself - a comfortable studio with the possibility of good shooting: light, photophone and made it simply beautiful in my studio. Now it is 90 square metres, which I already lack.
  3. Every day I worked hard to create a range of paintings - without copying anyone, only with author's sketches, in parallel I filmed all the stages of work on video. I tried to make the assortment diverse, but keeping my own style and technique.
  4. Every day I posted reels or a post in social networks, studied promotion from experts, analysed trends. I designed the profile header, the actual, disciplined work on stories and the quality of my account, tried to make it useful and beautiful for my subscribers. But I let all the trends pass through my soul, I did not do what I did not like. In nine months I gained 38 subscribers. I spent a lot of time answering comments and questions in direct mail.
  5. I worked on my observation - I visited exhibitions and galleries, bought world magazines on interiors, everywhere I tried to see a new idea or rework what I liked. I absorbed everything that seemed interesting, unusual, made me look and examine.
  6. Maximally told and showed the new direction of my activity to friends, acquaintances, clients - these are the people who are maximally positive towards you. Looked for interesting exhibitions for participation.
  7. And ... Found the top experts in your niche and bought training - it shortens your path to a professional artist several times.

I believe that everyone who wants to can do it! It is only important to understand that you have to work hard to get results.
