How To Build An Online Presence for Artists Selling Online

[@BGP_95]

Hello Jen.... Just wanted to wish you all the best to you and anyone who is reading this comment and struggling in life. Shiny days ahead, don't fear the dark.

I always think the naming part of brand is soooo hard 😭 especially when my last name is also very common, I really like the story behind fructus illustrations, using latin to make it a bit more special is so smart!

[@fructusillustrations]

Yes! Its so hard picking a name when your real name is so common! it took me so long but i really like the name I picked 😊

[@straberryshinigami15g97]

Mine is called wingdesire arts

[@anearregi7306]

I discovered you by accident and can't be more grateful💗 I love your videos and your journey inspires me a lot along mine! Growing online as a small artist can be a lonely road, so I love to follow other artist entrepreneurs like you ✨🧡

[@fructusillustrations]

Aww welcome! I'm so happy that you've stumbled across my little corner of the internet! I too love supporting fellow artist entrepreneurs! We have to have each others' backs! 😊❤

[@malikab3258]

Interesting video and topic. Besides, your way of explanation and the selection of elements to talk about in the same topic are very accurate. I love them all 👍. Keep going 👏👏

Thanks so much for sharing your experience! I think social media is such a hard journey to navigate. It can be fun one minute but also hard to make real genuine connections and hard to get seen (and stay up on trends). It's a such a good idea to focus on one platform first before branching out. I think I started with too many platforms 😓

[@fructusillustrations]

I get it, social media is definitely tough! I try not to think too hard about it though because it quickly becomes overwhelming and I try to find ways to make it enjoyable! I wish you luck and peace on your journey! Perhaps, if you feel like you're spread yourself too thin, you can take a little break and think about which platforms you enjoy the most 😊

Another informative video! I'm still trying to figure everything out but I do have goals similar to what you've already reached so I find these very helpful and motivating! Also, how did you like Beef? :D

[@fructusillustrations]

Yayy! I am so happy to help and provide insight whenever I can! As for Beef, my bf and I just finished episode 3 and so far I'm really enjoying the show! It's a fun watch and I'm interested to see how the rest of the season goes! How are you liking it?

[@dailyjoy9556]

amazing video

[@elora2993]

This video was very helpful. Thank you. I set up an instagram account a few weeks back, now need to work on a website but I feel like I've hit a wall with making new art. Do you have any advise about creating new art, and pushing through art block, getting things done through doubts and burnout?

[@fructusillustrations]

I actually have a couple of videos on my channel about overcoming art block and imposter syndrome which may give you some answers! But for a short quick answer, I would say that taking breaks helps a lot. Take some time away to relax and relieve yourself of the pressure to make something new. Also, I would suggest to always have a notebook or sketchbook with you to jot down ideas whenever they come to you so that when you have no idea what to create you have a list to choose from. Hope this helps! 😊😊😊

[@elora2993]

@@fructusillustrations It does helped, thank you. I really appreciate you taking the time with these suggestions! I'll go looking for those videos, I dont usually comment or anything but something about your presentation in this video gives me hope that watching your videos will be super useful to me. ♡
