Artist Website, Branding and Portfolio Marketing by Stefan Baumann

[@WilliamMcEntee]

Thanks Stefan, I had spent so much time in recent years building other peoples' web sites and helping them market their stuff that my website has been neglected. You are helping me make my own websites "earn their keep."

[@rickhargett1728]

God, I love this guy!! Straight forward plain and simple. Folks, it dont get no better'n this.

[@fadatty2756]

[@heathertez7352]

Your the one on utube I like to listen to 😄 You're changing my art game all around. Im so grateful 🙏

[@bittersweetsouls6582]

I love listening to you teach I just eat my lunch and toon in. I love that you've covered this specific topic because I find sometimes there's a disconnect with artists and their so called 'brand' representation. Thank you Stefan!

Lisa Martins Thanks

[@amirdarwin6633]

dunno if anyone gives a shit but if you're bored like me during the covid times then you can stream pretty much all of the new movies and series on Instaflixxer. I've been binge watching with my girlfriend for the last few months =)

[@laynekeagan1605]

@Amir Darwin Yea, I've been using InstaFlixxer for since december myself :)

I get so much out of your videos, thanks for sharing. God bless you for couching us online.

[@glenosaur]

You are my hero! Awesome info and your kindness towards others is appreciated.

Great discussion Mr. Baumann. For those who just want to create a website with great design patterns available, they can use Wix too. If anyone can operate a computer, they can build a great website for themselves for free. I made my own a few months ago. It is really easy but very professional.

[@StefanBaumann]

Thanks

[@miriamleib1]

I had a website but for some stupid reason I used a cutsi domain name. It had been bugging me for a while. So after watching this video a couple of times I finally took the plunge and got rid of it. Now, thanks to you , I have a new one with my name (.com) Lots of work but I'm much happier. Thanks for the push Stefan!

[@StefanBaumann]

[@virginiarparker9503]

Thank you. You do good work.

[@PrincessAloeVera]

What if you don't like your last name? In that case, Is it wise to use a pen name or maybe just first and middle name?

[@ronschlorff7089]

Good stuff here on web pages, Stefan, very important information. I've had one for years but now defunct and needs to be resurrected. You mentioned being in a gallery and being approached by the manager who asks if they can see your webpage after you announce that you are an artist! Funny story, my friend and fellow plein air painter, Pablo by name (great name for a painter, eh?) and his girlfriend were in a contemporary gallery in Santa Barbara somewhere and they were looking around at the work and were approached and asked if they were artists. Pablo said: "yes, I am, by the way"! And the manager said: "so sorry, you'll have to leave; we don't allow any artists in this gallery"! Pablo was just dumbfounded; and he and his friend just complied and left immediately. I was amazed by his story and said: "Gee Pablo, when she said we don't allow any artists in this gallery, you should have looked around the place and slowly nodded your head and said: Oh,....yes,....Now I see what you mean!" That would have been be too cool; but even I would not have thought of it on the spot, being so shocked at her statement!! What are they afraid of? Stealing ideas from the work, or just don't want to waste time with poor artists who won't buy anything! LOL :D

[@danieljellers]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge, insight, & expertise through these videos. I don't know how, when, or even if, to approach a gallery (very scary). Do you have any videos that could help?

[@StefanBaumann]

Daniel J Ellers Daniel I will create one Stay in touch

[@danieljellers]

Stefan Baumann I look forward to it! Thank you, Stefan.

[@pamatkinson1950]

Hi Stefan, thanks so much for all the useful things you put up. I was wondering. Do you ever consider making posters or prints of your paintings and if so how do you safe guard getting the correct photo's to keep for the future in the correct resolution. Perhaps its not something you worry about. My thought is, how would you feel in hindsight thinking 'Oh I should have kept that one for prints' and you didn't get a good enough photo. Is it something you think about?? Thanks again.

[@StefanBaumann]

+Pam Atkinson all the time, you must find someone to take good images not only for your website but prints if you want to get into that market. its expensive.

[@beagustafson2666]

great info ...thank you !

[@StefanBaumann]

[@ocean8434]

[@mikewynne6133]

Shopify is so much easier now and has many bells and whistles. You can sell your art right on Facebook with the integration.

[@AlonzoTheArmless]

Terrific info. Stefan is dead on. Do not rely on someone else to post your text and images on another site. Make your own.

[@StefanBaumann]

AlonzoTheArmless Thanks so much

[@gloriaj.pinsker9577]

Good advice. I wish that woman in the audience would shut up already! Let her get her own seminar.! :-D

[@theeaselrider4032]

" ImagesInSaladDressing.com" - I think I'll use that one.

[@dyannj1306]

witchery- he hasn't aged a bit in any vids!

[@stevesidare2493]

The brain is nothing but a nerve control center. Foolish to think it can help you with art. YOU make the art!

[@tnmaxim5109]

Done that! And turns out I am the proud owner of ninamaxim.com Husband just laughs about it, but it really is a necessity nowadays, isn't it?!

[@PeaceAndLoveAlways]

Too much noise and talking in the background

[@StefanBaumann]

I'm so sorry that your free video was not perfect but the information was good, not bad was worth the FREE content
