I absolutely love your work, and I live in St Margaret's Bay near dover England. I have donkeys and horses living in the field opposite my house. Have you ever written a book about your art work that would be easier for me to follow. I am now getting old and don't know how to join your art groups

[@CherieRoeDirksen]

Hi Angie, thank you for your comment. My hubby and I lived in Essex for three years and absolutely loved the English countryside. It's just SO beautiful! It must be wonderful to have that view of the field of horses and donkeys. I haven't written a book about my art per se, but I have written books about self-empowerment and creativity in general, here's the link: cherieroedirksen.com/books-2/) For now, I'm just posting my art tutorials as videos on KZbin :)

Curious, what are the dimensions of the paintings you sold? They are beautiful and I love the gold touches and nature.

[@CherieRoeDirksen]

Thank you, Alicia. Most of these are 20cm x 20cm but some of them are slightly bigger, 30cm x 30cm. I also use boxed canvas so the sides are around 4 cm deep. The 20cm x 20cm are very popular with the tourists here because they are a convenient size to fit in luggage which is why a do a lot of those.

You forgot to tell us HOW you sold your paintings..what type of marketing did you do, what worked best, is what most people want to know and how much did it cost to market over the year vs your sales aka ROI... those are the main 3 questions I thought you were going to talk about..

[@CherieRoeDirksen]

Good point! I think i might need to do a new video addressing this so thanks for your great questions. These paintings were mostly sold at local galleries barring a few that were commissions from returning clients. There was no cost to market them. The only marketing I do is a Facebook post once the art is delivered to the gallery to let people know what's available and also when they sell to generate interest. The galleries I'm at have a lot of tourist trade although the locals also tend to buy. I hope that helps.
