How Water Color Artists Earn Their Keep

By Connie Sears


Society oftentimes does not look favorably towards those people who are pursuing arts. A lot of people believe that pursuing arts fit better as a hobby than a job one can depend on for income. People do not see any significance in being water color artists since it is one of those jobs which do not really provide a steady source of income.

However, such a thing is just a prejudice against those who pursue arts. There are many jobs out there that can provide enough income for the professional. These jobs will surely allow the person to feed himself without burdening anyone. The person should not be ashamed to become an artist since this is also a noble profession like anything else.

It will surely become a good profession to pursue if the person likes painting above anything else. More so if the person really has the talent for painting and an eye for color. Pursuing this profession will surely bring the person profit and even fame for the artistic abilities that one has. The person should take advantage of this artistic talent properly.

The first thing that the person can do is to draw a painting and then sell it. If the person is a famous painter, then the painting might fetch a high price. However, the person should still be able to gain a sufficient amount from the painting if it got sold regardless of whether the person has a name in this field or not.

There are times when an exhibit will fetch more price for the person. This is especially true if the said painter is someone whose name is recognized in the artistic world. Once an exhibit is held, it is a chance to show off the artistic genius which drove the realization of that exhibit. The exhibit can be held in an art museum or in a art gallery.

Selling paintings and exhibits are not the only methods that an artist can use to gain money. There are still other jobs out there. For example, the person should try applying for a position as a permanent staff in an art school. Since there are lots of these art schools established these days, one can certainly get a position there.

Of course, the arts school is not the only way for the person to gain a job. The person can also teach at ordinary schools. They can apply for a position as art teacher. The vacancies for art teachers might not be high but this is still a job that one can take on. After all, every school needs to have an art teacher.

It might also help to have a company to sell the said portraits. If the person has money, try starting up an arts company which will supply clients with paintings. The person should raise enough capital to realize such a dream of having a company. Be sure to plan this one out since a failure means a loss of money.

As long as the person takes pride as a painter, he or she will surely be able to live through with the said craft. Being water color artists is not an easy task, after all. One will go through hardships. Make sure to be prepared for it.
