Thank you for sharing so much about your art business! I am an artist and creative who is somewhat newer to the business side of selling my art. I’ve been doing it on a small scale for about a year now, but it’s picking up a bit and I’ve felt pretty lost with some aspects of it! Finding boxes was the bane of my existence, so thank you for sharing links!!!!

Wow I love the personal touches. That is something I'd definitely love to include in my packaging. If I might suggest adding a foam backboard the same size as the canvas to the back to add extra protection:) Your art is amazing!!

@natlisan 3 года назад

Hey Melissa! You should try Gamvar liquid varnish! It's the consistency of water and completely odorless. It also doesn't leave brush strokes.

@CCHCraig 3 года назад

Great and informative video as always. Especially the glassine paper! I never thought of that. I just use the brown craft paper but will switch to this next time. Packaging and shipping is always frustrating to me. Maybe because I don't get to practice it as much as you do. There's usually much cursing going on! LOL Thanks for such great videos! Love watching your process and seeing you create, M!

Hi Melissa! The only thing I'd say is that the stamp you have would be perfect on the cardboard as well, instead pf the stickers on the outside. Thanks for the useful content!

@Bulluminati517 3 года назад

Thank you for sharing this process with us. I think the part I have trouble with is finding boxes and knowing the sizes to get.

@Mfalconer 3 года назад

Yeah, it can be tricky. For me, I use 18"x24" boxes for 16"x20" paintings, I use 24"x30" boxes for 18"x24" paintings and I use 30"x36" boxes for 24"x30" paintings.

@Bulluminati517 3 года назад

@@Mfalconer I love love love you for this. THANK YOU. Your artwork is awesome and you are gorgeous. You are going places with your talent. Always remember that!

@kimskreations3403 Год назад

Try posca pens for the edges. It's super fast, dries quickly and less room for era

@ArtbyLysa 3 года назад

I love watching your process videos. Congratulations on your sale! I packed my paintings in bubble like you do for a long time as it makes sense. But all the online resources say the bubbles should be facing the object they’re supposed to protect. So I switched my packing process. Have you ever gotten any complaints of damaged paintings? If not then maybe I should switch back. Either way, thanks for sharing!

@FitChickGlows 3 года назад

Thank you so much for sharing right down to prepping your artwork before packaging. I was wondering do you take a photo of your completed paintings for prints (did you do that for this one too?) before shipping them off to their new collectors? And, I was wondering how do you go about taking those photos? ... Also, totally off topic, do you use a reference photo for your portraits? And do you need to get permission from the photographer or from the celebrity before you can paint and sell them? I’m just curious as to how it works for artists doing celebrity / famous people portrait art. Again, thank you so much for your artists vlogs! It’s so much fun watching a prolific artist run their business and to get inspired!

@lesley523 Год назад

Hey Melissa, have just kind of stumbled onto your videos. You are so calm and organized and I've enjoyed your videos. I really appreciate the info on shipping. I'm a long time artist but trying to sell more and needed info to package my large paintings. Just wondering the average price to ship a painting that size. Do you just figure that into your sale price? Can you do a video on pricing? Thanks

@jenniferliberty8855 3 года назад

Greetings!! I LOVE your work and your vids are insanely helpful! Can I ask where you purchase your paper/envelopes used for your authenticity letter?

@Valduggan Год назад

I love your videos!!!😍 I find them so calming. I'm an aspiring artist and hopefully one day can be as successful as you are. Business-wise, I am curious the hear how you handle shipping cost? Do you offer free shipping or have a set fee? And how do you know how much shipping is going to be? Thank you!

@markmunoz22 2 года назад

I'm a new subscriber and really enjoy your videos. Can I ask, when it comes to selecting your box size, how much extra room do you allow for wrapping your work in bubble wrap? Most of my pieces are 16"x20". I'd like to wrap around a couple of times like you (using the same kind of bubble wrap as well). Thanks!

@brittx537 3 года назад

I didn't know that about the bubble wrap!! What a nice clue! Thank You So Much!!! I'm so glad I've discovered you, you're literally doing everything I want to do!! #WhatAnInspiration #BlackGirlMagic

@AndreaSerralta 3 года назад

Hey there! Loving your videos and your work! I’m also an artist and want to start my own art business soon but I was really wondering if you have ever come across copyright issues for any of your work? I can’t find any good RU-vid videos over reference photos and copyright. Well they all say no to pretty much everything but your own photos, which is not what I want to hear haha

@WhutitdoTx 2 года назад

Can you use glassine paper for long-term storage? Like wrap it up and put it in a box ?

@sylviahouleart9040 3 года назад

Do you include Shipping and Handling in your prices or charge separately? I love your channel and it's been very informative and helpful. Thank you!

@Mfalconer 3 года назад

For expensive paintings the shipping is included (unless it's a commission). But for more inexpensive pieces like prints, the shipping is extra.

@markzanker4832 6 месяцев назад

Hi Melissa. Lovely paintings. I notice that you don't stretch your canvas. Is there any reason for that?

My question is why do you use a small brush to cover your sides ? I use a roller. Is it the texture you do not like? Just wondering

The small brush just helps me paint straighter and neater lines 😊

Not really, it's just my personal preference. Some people leave the edges "messy", some people use white, some paint all the way to the edges as they're creating. It's really up to you and what you prefer.
