I’m just getting back into selling my artwork (I’m a paper artist so mainly paper cut items such as maps, sometimes layered photographic pieces or geometric pieces etc).
I have an Etsy shop which is fine, but I find lower priced items tend to do better there. For example small custom maps in the £40-80 range. I’m considering not on the high street although they also have very high commission and although they do have some more expensive stuff, they’re more like Etsy I think in terms of ideal price range.
In art terms my work isn’t massively expensive (the stuff in my Etsy shop varies from about £40 for a small piece up to £400 for a very elaborate piece, although I’m currently working on a few things that will be in the £500-£1500 range because of the complexity and time involved - eg. Working on a triptych of London where each of the three panels would be about £500).
I’ve had a look at Art Finder but the commissions are insane (40% IIRC) and I’m sure local galleries are similar although I may approach some.
Just wondering if anyone has any good suggestions for websites / places I should look at.
Or if you sell your work online, any tips on where would be great :)
