You may want to consider this relatively new way of getting paid for your artwork.

Pixels.com is one of the distribution channels. This is the way they describe what they offer:

Welcome to the largest, fastest-growing art and photography community in the world. Pixels is the premier online marketplace for buying and selling original art, prints, home decor, apparel, and more. With just a few clicks, you can open an account, upload your images, select the products that you want to sell, set your prices, and begin selling your art to the millions of buyers all over the world.

It can be very appealing since it is not necessary to concern yourself with packaging, insuring and shipping the artwork.

FineArtAmerica has another site like this where you can offer all sorts of products, even coffee mugs, each of which uses images of you art.

You upload photos, set the markup and they do the rest!

These make fabulous gifts. Take a peek at pixels.com/art/karlene+ellsworth

Good morning!

It’s another beautiful day. The sun is shining through my windows and onto the simple study I completed last evening.

This one is done completely with a palette knife. You’ll see the style is very different from most of my still life. Give me some feedback on what you think.

I have another wonderful painting to add.

Complementary Lemons was a particularly fun painting for me. I spent lots of time this year just playing with color. Also I played with using water mixable oils. Who knew – water and oils can mix!
