We are all living in a difficult time right now and are facing some big challenges. Creative people and artists have seen their incomes dwindle and are left wondering what to do next.

So we've made this video to try and help artists and creatives, by giving some practical ideas, to help them embrace the tools they have around them.

Now is the time to take ownership of your online art collection - no matter where you have it located (Facebook, Etsy, Saatchi Art, Your website etc) and get it up to date with your latest and greatest work. Check your bio and contact info too.

Also, now is the best time to look at your website or look at building one. Don't worry - it's not as hard as you think it is and it will absolutely give you a reward as long as you learn some basic things first. I am slowly putting together a series of videos aimed at helping you with this and I make it very clear and easy to understand. See the collection of 4 videos here to watch: [ Ссылка ]

We are also talking galleries. If you are represented by one then what are they doing to support you in this time? What exactly are they doing to embrace technology, reach an audience and most importantly, what they are doing to sell your art. Challenge the people you pay your commissions too and make them work for it.

If you find yourself at home and wanting to work on your own stuff but have family and time commitments then try my series of two videos featuring easy-step-by-step acrylic painting that anyone can do and enjoy. It may help keep others occupied while you get on with what you need to do. Watch them here: [ Ссылка ]

I talk a lot about using Social Media to connect with new people and to also post regular and consistent updates on what you are doing in your artistic endeavours.

Get on Facebook, start posting - and be consistent!

Also look at Instagram Stories - you can make a 60 second video in no time at all and share your creative process and output. We look at sending a Tweet from twitter whilst sat down having a cuppa (very easy) and we also demonstrate Instagram LIVE as a way of live streaming (for up to 60 minutes) so you can easily broadcast to the world (actually doing your creative process perhaps? or maybe a Q & A session? Think creatively now - make everything count now!

Make connections with other people, share your stories. Remember that knowledge is a powerful thing and the more we can learn the better equipped we become.

We love doing these videos for you but if you feel like helping we always need tools and equipment to keep things going. Every little helps; thank you so much!
