Do I really need to say this? We can profit from our art on Redbubble. I get the feeling people are not understanding this concept. Redbubble is merely and only our personal art gallery. It’s not a static destination where you stop and stare, but a dynamic gallery of photographs forever showing art that best represents what we’d like the general public to purchase. From Cards through to Framed wall-hangings, our work is available to purchase online. Redbubble provides a slick website that is so easy for choosing frames/laminates/cards/t_shirts/etc, purchasing the product and easy-delivery system. They make it amazingly easy to be a small-business owner. Or at least make a small to moderate amount of play-money on the side. I encourage all Artists to use Redbubble to get started, but don’t let it stop you in your tracks. It staggers me how many people are sitting behind their computers with tapping fingers saying, “OK, Now they can see me, they will come here any moment now to purchase my art!” “No they won’t!! You have to find the customers yourself. Redbubble enables you to purchase your own work … and then on-sell it. / My Redbubble Business In August 2007 I purchased thirty cards via Redbubble. I gave five as gifts to very close friends, simply blank cards without messages, but with a simple note … do what you like with this. / Some people kept them, others used them within minutes to send off as Birthday cards. Most asked where I got them from and can they have more? The remaining cards sold within 24hours of arrival from Redbubble! Then I emailed those people, other friends and family, showing them my RB gallery. I have repeat customers because of this initial free promotion. We order $150 worth of cards and other stuff each fortnight, either in pre-orders or for stock. I have a box of about 120 card-ographs in stock at anytime. My lovely wife keeps a very intricate and statistical ledger of all cards in stock, those sold and those on order. Clients choose from the gallery (telling me which ones they like via email, with the name of the artwork, the style they’d like it presented _card, laminate, etc and how many of each_), we order and receive, then we take it to the customer. About a two-week turn-around time. I’ve also purchased a dozen 12”x8” of the ‘prettier’ of our photographs on each of our galleries, which are easily viewed in an A3-portfolio. These are used to determine the appropriate frame and matte colour when clients choose them. Now that Christmas is gone, I can reveal that White Gums II was picked off my gallery by a work-friend’s mother here in Adelaide, I had it framed locally, and it now sits pride of place in their lounge room! I’m very proud of that!! From the corporate world through to the suburban billiards room, everyone wants a suitable image to hang on the wall. Because I have clients who prefer not to purchase online, I’ve made it my responsibility to acquire the final product and deliver it to their offices and homes. And this system works beautifully. (More about this in the next four weeks…) To parody and plagerise a famous quote: “Give someone a fish and they eat for a day, give them a camera with with a zoom lens, and they can shoot the most beautiful carp every day of the week!“

There are so many tips’n’tricks, tutorials, enhancements and various other interesting articles listed around Redbubble. I’ve decided it is time to revitalise the articles I have written. / Why? Because so many writers are long-winded, overly-descriptive and their instructions are near impossible to navigate. I believe my documents cover the many issues necessary to run a successful redbubble gallery, allowing artists to successfully present their portfolio to all clientele.

After 3 very hectic weeks of choosing images, ordering prints, fretting that my canvasses wouldn’t arrive in time, spending hour after hour pacing the house trying to decide how to price an image, and generally getting myself in a fluster, I’m very happy to say that my first Solo exhibition is finally hung & in situ at Flavours Gallery until January 15. It’s been quite a learning experience…. Thanks so much to those of you who helped me choose my images – 20 in total – some of which I would never have considered, purely because I can be somewhat scatter-brained & don’t tend to check my own gallery as often as I should! I settled on using 13 redbubble matted prints with re-usable frames. / Thanks Mel for pointing out the benefits of being able to sign the images before they go into the frame. The gold pen works a treat on the black matte! / I also used 7 canvasses from another source (because they gallery wrap), which thankfully also look fantastic! I’ve been busy pasting Flyers all around town, & dropping my name at local media outlets, not to mention boring all my facebook & twitter followers with updates & launch dates. / Thanks Deb for suggesting the Flyers….. it never crossed my mind! I managed to take some pics on the day that we hung the exhibition for you to have a peek at. Thanks to all of you for your wonderful support in this exciting venture….. it’s been so much fun :)) Thanks also to my beloved Husband Robert….. he’s supported me in my creative pursuits since the day he met me 18 years ago. This is as much his achievement as it is mine. xxx / The First image goes up… / This is Craig Allen; He’s the Gallery owner. And finally : you can’t beat a sandwich board for drive-by advertising! My very good friends drove by yesterday, saw the Sandwich board & didn’t stop!!! Thanks guys ;-) /
