The obvious question is; will anybody buy my art?
Yes, but you will need to find them, educate them, and negotiate the price.
The less obvious question is; who are people who buy art? Who are some artist they buy from that I like? Can I specialize and make art in that category for those buyers.
Will anybody buy my art?
Adam, you reminded me of the site Threadless, which I'm hoping to use at some point. It's all print on demand, so low-risk. I wonder if you could upload some designs with your magical words - shirts, tote bags, etc. I'd buy one! Maybe some targeted at other creators as well as kids/parents. You have lots of pithy and helpful phrases about persistence, routines, etc. (You might be thinking about buying art like much more expensive and unique canvases, but an online shop could be a gateway for more people to know about you.) Just a thought!
