You receive payment to a bank account, to a card, to an electronic wallet.
If you work through, then everything is greatly simplified. Just like in the case of photobanks. The exchange itself attracts new customers and takes on interaction with them (receiving payment, order delivery, etc.). The customer will not be able to “throw” or deceive you in any other way. Money for work comes to your account in the exchange, from there they can be withdrawn to a bank or card.
On the Internet, for example, drawing portraits from photographs is very popular. A person sends you a photo, you paint a portrait, scan the drawing and send it to him via the Internet. Or send the original portrait by mail or transport company.
E is often asked to draw a picture for an article. For example, I often order such drawings. So if you good artist then write to me at [email protected]. Or better through personal messages on social networks (links to my accounts).

Modern technologies destroy the stereotype about the constantly hungry and impoverished artist, whose work is seen only by the walls of the workshop. The Mann, Ivanov & Ferber publishing house published the book “Create All Day” by Lisa Congdon, which shares psychological and practical tools for successive steps in the field of creative industries: from finding sales channels to choosing a forwarding company. T&P publishes several chapters along with real stories people who debunk the myth that you can't make money as an artist.

Exploring Different Sources of Income
So, your ship leaves the pier, taking you into the stormy sea of an artistic career. The shape your creative business must be determined from the outset. You have several options, which we will discuss in the pages of this book. For example, you can sell originals or prints of your work, provide illustrations, and grant usage rights. But where to start? My words may sound like a hackneyed truth, but best advice The one I got when I started my art career was "Follow your heart." There is no one way that will work for everyone and everyone; so the decision of what is best for you personally is determined by the unique circumstances of your own life, your strengths, goals, resources and experience.
Some artists are self-supporting by focusing on a single source of income, such as illustrating or selling art. But in general, in our time it is customary to have several such sources. Diversifying your income is a great way to keep your art venture interesting and dynamic, and you won't be dependent on a single way to make a living. When one of the sources begins to dry up, another will come to the surface. In addition, you can turn to another type of income for a while even if you get tired of some kind of certain way selling your work. Once the original drawing has been sold, the passive income option, such as granting the right to use, will not require much additional work, while you will be able to receive income from this source for many years and continue to work on new original works.
Reading the following chapters of this book and evaluating possible sources income, think about which ones will bring you more pleasure and will be better suited to your work. Don't allow yourself to pick one or the other potential option just because you think it looks more profitable. If your source of income doesn't match your values or makes you feel dissatisfied, it will de-inspire you and leave you feeling dissatisfied as a result.
The smartest approach is to start small, especially if you have other work besides art. If you immediately start with too many sources, they can overwhelm you. Therefore, it is better to limit yourself to one or two, and having found the mainstream and starting to earn money, already think about others. You may find that managing an online store takes too much time, and communication with customers who purchase your illustrations hinders creative process. If any of the sources of income does not work for you - do not worry, this is in the order of things. Research process various ways realizing their works or generating income from their talents requires repeated attempts And a large number time, and mistakes are inevitable. But armed with patience and openness to the world, you will eventually find your personal niche.
Drawing up a marketing plan
I recommend making a marketing plan for each quarter throughout the year. Depending on the season, your career aspirations and what you're into this moment work, marketing plans for each quarter will look different. For example, in the third quarter, when you are actively working on the eve of the holiday season, you can focus your marketing efforts on getting new orders, and in the fourth - on increasing sales in the store. If you're starting your career as an illustrator, it's best to start promoting in the first quarter so your postcards don't get lost in the holiday hustle and bustle of editorial offices. Think strategically, engage in marketing every day, and not just in times of calm - and your efforts will pay good dividends in the future.
Your marketing plan should take into account all aspects of an advertising campaign, including press releases, posts on your blog - up to a large social media campaign. Make a table for each quarter, planning in it marketing events by weeks. List any actions you need to take and the deadlines for completing them. The better you organize your advertising campaign, the more return you will get from it.
How to find your niche
If you're considering illustrating, ask yourself, "Which segment of this market would be best suited for my work?" or “Which area of illustration interests me the most?” When I first started, I got myself a special “inspiration board” where I noted what kind of work I would like to do and areas of illustration that corresponded to my hobbies. Since the main thing in my work is color and cheerful mood, and not conceptual content, I understood that it was best for me to work on the design of stationery and household items. In addition, I was attracted to illustrating books, so I had to work on the plot and thematic component of my portfolio.
Take the time to explore the potential uses for your talent and where you'd like to focus - this will help you decide which areas of illustration you'll target and what changes you'll need to make to your artwork.
How to make the most of downtime
Career Keyword freelance artist, - unpredictability. But even when business is sluggish, there is always an opportunity to clean things up, learn something, and lay the foundations for future growth. During such periods, it is important to regularly carry out certain time at work and engage in the development of their art business in the following areas:

Work as a volunteer. Chapter 4 discussed the importance of participating in the local arts community as a means of networking and networking, which can then beneficial effect for your artistic career. So, the "low season" can be used to work in a non-profit artistic organization, at an art venue or as an intern at a gallery. Working in a gallery, you can learn a lot: how works of art are sold to collectors, how exhibitions are organized and held, what is the relationship between artists and gallery owners. As a volunteer for a non-profit arts organization, you will learn how to get a grant, how to get your work included in scheduled exhibitions, and how to participate in major events such as auctions.
Do marketing. Use free time to highlight your name. Review your marketing materials: is it time to update the information on the site? If yes, then add samples of new work to the site, media reviews, information about awards received, think about improving the design. Have you been on social media for a long time? Take the time to connect on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, and explore options for expanding your online presence. Have you been blogging for a long time? Then start a new personal project and write about it. When you are in last time Sending art cards to your dream galleries and art directors? Take advantage of the time you have now to design a postcard featuring the best of your new work.

“When you are just starting your career as an artist or illustrator, you should agree to most of the orders that are offered to you - this is how contacts are made and a portfolio is formed.

We also believe that it is important to get good pay for your work. If the customer says: “You will get great fame, but we cannot pay you”, - for us it is like a red traffic light! If we are already working on some order, then we increase the amount of remuneration. Extra work should be paid!

One microstock has an over the top rating in terms of the number of sales, the other is more famous for high price on content. Therefore, each author must determine for himself what suits him. For example, here are 4 of the most famous and recommended sites where you can make money on drawings while posting your work on all stocks:

Using such a resource is a great opportunity to buy quality content at an affordable price. This does not violate all copyrights and even provides papers.
Such an offer is especially suitable for small projects, which are simply unprofitable in material terms and time-consuming to hire a stranger and explain to him all the subtleties from scratch.

But until now, he receives monthly payments, albeit not so much (within $ 100, despite the fact that he has not been doing this for 5 years) since his work remains in demand.
The deduction from the sale of one illustration or picture varies approximately from 0.25 to 0.40 cents. For half a day spent on content production, this is certainly not enough, but considering that one work on microstock is bought many times, a decent amount eventually comes out.
That is, the more the author adds unique illustrations and pictures to his portfolio, the more he will be able to earn. And if you have a huge amount of work, you can even go on vacation for a month and all this time receive deductions in a decent amount.
From the transaction price of one purchased image or illustration, the author receives approximately 20% -40%, or 0.25 - 0.40 cents. But if your image was purchased through an extended subscription, then you can get from $2.85 to $70 per sale.
Reference! Having accumulated about 500 works in the portfolio, the author can receive about $ 100 per month from them. If their number increases to 5 thousand, then the monthly total income will be 1 - 5 thousand dollars.
All figures are approximate, it is possible that the author, if available a small amount jobs will earn much more than $100, and such real examples there are many in life. It all depends on the skill and demand for images.
