    I will have to send my son here for info. He is wanting to sell his art online. :)

    As an artist myself...I have tried etsy, and didn't find it very helpful at all. It's more for crafters than it is for painting. I've had more luck using social networking sites to sell than etsy or a printing site. If you're interested in joining some other community sites there is Deviantart, but I would stay away from the forums as it is dominated by kids/teens. Also have you heard of Ovation? It's an arts channel and they have an artist community. Artsfire is similar to etsy.

    Squidoo is so inspiring, just as this article, thanks, I found few new things and thought I know a lot ;)

    This is an excellent lens especially for beginning artists wanting to sell their hard won artwork. It does get a bit dizzying starting out and I'm sure your help here in focusing down will be most helpful

    This seems like a very useful site for artists. Would this also apply to people who sell handcrafted sewn or crocheted items? If so I have a few people I will need to send a link for them to see this lens!

    Great lens. God bless!

    This was so helpful. Thank You! I am a young artist trying different approaches to selling art (both design-like art and painting and photography). So far, it's word of mouth and through blogging and zazzle that I'm promoting my designs.

    Networking with other creative people is definitely the most effective way to get by in the art world.

    Thanks for this valuable info. My favorite art sales portal is www.FineArtAmerica.com, which you discussed. Been with them for years and they do a great job with my digital art.

    This is great--I live with an artist. I'll point out this lens to her. She has shops in Etsy, Cafe Press, and her own website but you've listed some other places I think she doesn't know about yet. Thank you!

    I'm not an artist but I appreciate great art pieces. I have a few collection at home. Thanks for the list. Now I know where to find great art pieces to add to my collection. Hey - if you've got the time, try this great exercise from Margaret Lynch that could open the door to more Abundance - in minutes. Change is a choice: Tap along with a free demo and video and see if this works for you. Thanks! Sundae ;-)

    Hi there thanks for this - it's a great resource. I've been trying to sell my art at art shows and trying to get into a gallery but am finding it very difficult. Will give online sales a try.

    Great lens! I have all sorts of lenses for my art and photography. Also, I see no mention of deviantART here. That's another really good free/upgrade site.

    Great lens!! I didn't see a list of "crowdsourcing" t-shirt sites like Threadless, Design By Humans, RedBubble, Finroo, etc. Thoughts on those as places for artists to sell their art?

    Thank you for so many wonderful ideas for artists. Artists are searching for more ways to sell nice pieces and may times must do their own marketing/advertising and this is a great place to start.
