After being in my business as an Artist for over thirty years and yes if you if you are selling your work in the process of trying to make a living out of your Art, you are in a business weather you like it or not .

It is something that is always relatively uncomfortable for a lot of right brained creative people to get their heads around. I have had to force myself over the decades, mostly through people doing the wrong thing by me, to learn about the legal side of the Arts.

One of the great myths that have been dumped on the heads of Artists all over the world is that you are not a real Artist if you profit from your work. I have met a number of Artists over the years that have been more successful than you could imagine. The one thing they have never believed in is the stereotypes that society has dumped on Artists in general. The reason that Artists like Picasso, Dali, Warhol, Chagall, Rubens and many many more were successful was the fact that they also promoted themselves extremely well.
