The Key to Get Collectors Excited About Your Art

The Key to Get Collectors Excited About Your Art

What’s one thing that you love most about your work?

Instead of asking you what’s one thing that’s different or unique about your work, it’s more impactful for you ***and your audience*** to know more about what you LOVE about your work. 

This is because when your passion and excitement for what you do comes through, it’s contagious. Your excitement for your work sparks excitement for buyers, gallerists and your community that are listening to what you’re sharing. 

So if you love the systematic approach behind your work, the color mixing, the flow you get into, or the oddly satisfying way that paint flows off of the brush and onto the paper, start sharing that. 

For me, I absolutely LOVE how you can watch an image develop before your very eyes in photography. I’ve always felt like it was magic. First there’s nothing on the paper and then you start to see hints of something happening. Before you know it, you can recognize the images that are surfacing. And I’m never bored by this part of the process. That quiet, slow reveal is always delivers - even if I don’t fall head over heels with the final print. 

People buy work from an emotional place. Getting to know what you love most about the work is a key way to bring collectors into your world and to appreciate your work even more. It tells a piece of your story that’s very compelling.

So, what’s one thing you love about your work? Let me know in the comments. 

And, if you want to take more action, copy and paste that into Facebook and Instagram posts. It should take you no more than five minutes, right? 

Know that I’m joining you in posting my favorite thing about my work on my social networks, too. 

Here’s to you sharing what you do and love most! 

Cheers,

Kate
