Making money with art

Commission work if you have the resume and skills.
 
Where would I find potential buyers?
Instagram would be great (As you can easily showcase your work), I saw many potential artists to request commissions on there. Anything from Tattoo designs to UX or Album covers.


Also there are many freelancing platforms such as Freelancer, Fiverr, Upworks and... I am not familiar with them, I just know their names.
I also know that on these freelance platforms a lot is about having a paid premium account and buying reviews (you can buy those here), what I am trying to say is that on those freelancing platforms, it takes time to get the ball rolling, so does it on Insta or any other marketing tactic actually.

Do you message potential buyers on ig? Or do they have to find you?

If you're a good at art , there are many ways/methods to make money .
1/ Create a tiktok account/Youtube channel and livestream .
2/ Draw comics/cartoons and sell them on eBay/Amazon .
3/ Provide services on Fiverr .
and so on .
 
I agree that you need to blog. That way you will become more popular.

Mass msging people on Insta is against the rules I think and they will mark you as spam.
I personally never done this, just told you about the ways I think would work.
 
+1 for NFT. You can grow social media accounts with the mother/slave strategy (even automate it with python)
 
Self published books through Kindle. For kids especially if your art will be unique
 
I would recommend both until you scale them up. You can sell them even on IG and Twitter and also using the famous sites out there.
 
Its a great thing that you are an artist. Many people above have suggested you to start a Youtube channel. I will add my suggestion on top of this - why don't you create a storyboard channel for Children's stories?

This niche is very popular. Kids stories are watched repeatedly and have longer watch time. You don't need to animate your sketches, just move your drawings in each screen and tell a story from the background voice.

I had tried this thing in the past, but since I am not a dedicated artist, so I couldn't continue this experiment. I am sure you can make a good money with this technique if you don't give up and make some good number of videos for kids stories.

Do let me know your thoughts on this. I may share some more Youtube tips with you here in this thread.
 
There is lots of website for selling your art
