Hey all. so being an artist, it is my want and need to share my work and possibly get some buisness in selling designs (and no that is not the only reason i am here on this site) however i was wondering, is this the proper forum to post in? or should it go elsewhere?

Hi Sylvias and welcome to the forum.

There is no forum here to post a commercial or buisness add, but maybe try using the PM system here when you see posts with people looking for help. Selling here is forbidden, but what goes on with members through personal messages is your buisness. Smile

And also, the way you posted the question about selling on the site is very respectfull and commendable IMO.

Cheers.

If you want to showcase some of your work...... Post pics in your personal gallery here. Or post a link for people to go look at your work.

Hi. May i suggest sending some of your samples into Tattoo Magazine? They even pay money in US funds in their tattoo flash section. Good way to get your art seen.

Maybe you can set up your own site and promote it

I have one on freewebs and it seems to work decently well

go to wordpress or blogger and sign yourself up for a free blog. its maybe not the best way to display art work but while you are sorting out your own site its a very quick, very easy and completely free way to get your stuff on line.

I'd be sure to copyright your works before anyone see's them if you intend to do it for profit!

otherwise,..don't complain if everyone takes them and uses them Laughing
