Is There A Step by Step Process to Creating A Successful Art Business?

One of my students recently suggested that it would be helpful if I could create a step by step process for artists to create a successful art business.
That got me thinking long and hard about whether that was even possible and that is the subject of today's live broadcast.

Set aside one hour a day to make art, any type. After a month it will be habit and you will drastically increase your skill. Family and friends will buy something from you and now you're a professional. This channel will motivate anyone. Tim Packer i's the Dave Ramsey of the art world. My favorite books (for learning about art): - Art and Fear by David Bayles - How To Be An Artist by Jerry Saltz - Great Fighter Jets of the Galaxy 1 by Tim Gibson

I'm in the reseller business and what I buy and sell is getting harder and harder to sell (resell prices are getting lower and lower), even though it's top of the line mid-century modern and have been in the business for decades. Another huge step is knowing how to adapt/evolve to new trends in color, design, etc. Your painting in the background is a great example. You try painting in that color palette and subject matter today and no one would buy it, not even talking about your skill level.

this is actually an example of a "bad" painting I did man-years ago😉

Everything I have ever been in has its down time. Worry about yourself and let others worry about you!

Thank you for this video. On KZbin there are many channels that focus on selling art even if it's not that good. And yes, I can understand their pov, since that selling art without being a master still helps you to keep going, but at the same time I have always thought that quality is important, and that if you are really good, selling your works is not that hard. I appreciate your honesty and I know that I still have to concentrate a lot on the first step

Regarding prints and photography, if your watercolors are small enough I've sold a lot of prints scanned on an old HP printerscanner combo I found on the roaddside. The printers broken but the scanner works beautifully

I agree with your comment about BlackBerry. They were the king of smartphones. My perspective is that they got complacent and distracted by owning a hockey team. It didn't take long for them to lose their traction and the others moved into their territory.

There was a strange side element that didn't help them. I remember CBC radio starting running many "news" stories describing just how badly the company was failing. Then immediately after there'd be a "news" story raving about the next Iphone. It seemed like a paid hit piece followed by an ad! It was gross.

[@karollbrinton8317]

Do you happen to have a checklist or suggestion list of equipment that are "must haves" for producing KZbin videos?

[@timpackerfinearts]

Right now… really just a relatively new smart phone… with maybe a lav microphone 😊👍

[@karollbrinton8317]

Thank you very much Tim. 🤗
