I had a self hosted exhibition with the help of some well connected people that went incredibly well and almost sold out. Im having another this year, and hopefully my next step is a gallery! Thanks for all the information julien 🙏 and all the more respect for diving into the comment sections in every video
Hi Joe, that’s terrific news! Keep up the good work and try to track these numbers and clients well. Feel free to let me know how the next show goes as well. And the pleasure is all mine, as always! I love getting in touch with you all and the comments often ask very interesting question or inspiring topic suggestions for future videos. After all, these videos are for YOU. Have a great day and stay in touch!
As a collector I disagree with the negative of commissions. There is no reason having a piece of art commissioned need to stifle your creativity as an artist. All the classical greats used to work from commissions, but with a broad remit to make wider creative decisions. As a client this is how i love to purchase art. Give an artist a rough subject guide, size and budget, then let them work. If this method is good enough for Michelangelo it is good enough for me.
This has been my favorite type of art to create. The creative freedom is incredible and at the same time allows for anyone to buy in, as long as the commission is based on a standard rate. My paintings are floral, colorful, objective-abstract, acrylic paintings. I love it when my clients invite me to their gardens for inspiration, yet pay half in advance without seeing a single sketch. It’s very surreal and magical. wish I got them more often.
Just remember how long it took you to sell your first drawing from the day you started as a kid , over ten years right... Keep Painting the sales will come
A lot of unknown artists are taking to UA-cam and other streaming services and other Free ways to advertise or to sell or get their art to the publics eye. Rule number one don't rush it. Don't look too desperate to sell your work.
Art is a passion to create. Whatever you choose do with it is your choice. With that said, Julian's insights are beyond invaluable at any level. Thank you for these videos!
Solid advice. Insta has worked for me, even Facebook twice! Am part of a group show in August in a bona fide Berlin gallery - looking forward to that. Pasito pasito. Nice jacket (I know, 2nd mention). Cheers.
That’s great! Insta is indeed very important in today’s art world. Congratulations with the show and wishing you the very best 🤞Thanks, favorite jacket right now!
Artists who disabuse themselves of the need to make money from art work are way ahead of the game. Go to school and get a skill that will support you and your work. I may be very avant garde in my thinking but art and money are two totally different things.
It is absolute opposite of factual judging at the very least by the fact that every artist that makes art, wants and does buy art from others. That means the ratio is at the very modest unreal and minimal estimation is 1:1. But in reality there are way more people who buy art while making none than there are artists
Thank you Julien… and family. It seems one other occasion is through an artist opportunity. These call for works competitions that provide a reward. Often it is linked to a theme… a hybrid of having a ‘show theme’ and a commission (only with potential payment). I refer mainly to those on artenda… after some experience interesting… however potentially dilute one’s work….? Can you enlighten this realm a little please? Any to watch for … many to avoid? On the other hand… does it dilute one’s respect in the Art world working in illustration or design… as work to support a proper art practice? Good work. Now it’s a rainy summer season in ☀️Mexico. Sincerely Janet
Hi Janet, thank you for tuning in, as always. Yes, art opportunities is another way to earn money as an artist and perhaps also sell work. We have done a couple of videos on Artenda including one with the most essential tips and tricks. Feel free to watch that one next! Concerning the combination of art with illustration and design; as long as both careers are clearly separated, then you are all right. Sunny regards from Belgium!
His list was not based on aesthetic judgement. It was a statistical analysis based on how active those artists are in the art world. There is nothing to redo. The list was based on objective criteria.
Elena you have a really bad attitude and are a real know-it-all. Like most know-it-alls, you also seem insecure and poorly informed. If you don’t like something, do what normal people do and *move on*. No one is making you watch this or appreciate “crap”. Who tf are you to decide what’s crap? Art is the epitome of subjective, dear. Where are you showing? I’m sure we’d all love to see it.
Galleries are greedy. Their job is to sell something they haven't payed for. Art doesn't go off (In most cases) so they can keep trying. They just take advantage of the Artists' work.

No one buys sketches? Are you sure about that, dear?
Very good point! Thank you for tuning in
Shirt and jacket 🔥🔥 glad you found your look homie. Thanks for another great video

The way the dog was looking at you 😆😆😆also thanks for this handful information!!
Keep your art or give it to people you like. If you get very good, give your art to a museum.
This is correct. Good sales does not make good art.

Can we have access to the data you used in your presentation for the research?
Cash and carry is the best way.
Если не секрет, простите если этот вопрос не этичен🫢🤭 интересно🤗 сколько Вы зарабатываете своим искусством ( как художник) в год
60000€
A blunt but relevant question; I sell around €45,000 of my own works per year. Thank you for tuning in
не вижу ничего грубого, мне кажется старомодным и жлобским подобное отношение к финансовым вопросам 😴при всем уважении лино к Вам
Can someone please give the dog thought bubbles?!
I’m the dog listening
You use in your video a short of ciuciu artist. He make it❤
Have a crack at a better figurative painters list please. Last weeks one was a bit off. Go on, please.

Perhaps I’ll share my personal top 10 in the foreseeable future!
Im the greatest living artiste'.. No one gets 50% of my sales!! No one.. Or thing!!
The truth is most artists are actually trash that is why they don't sell.
Then there are high quality prints of already famous artworks throughout art history.
Big eyes started in a bar ???
And yet it is not the ideal place to start to exhibit your work. There will always be exceptions, of course.
ART IS DEAD. GET OVER IT
Galleries are greedy.
Their job is to sell something they haven't payed for.
Art doesn't go off (In most cases) so they can keep trying.
They just take advantage of the Artists' work.
