Art Tips, Advice, Suggestions
Social Media and Online Tips
- Research and use tags and hashtags whenever and wherever you post online. Do you post on Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, X? Use the best keywords so that your post and art can be found. Use the best hashtags according to what you do. Examples: #DonnaLiguriaArt #PrinceWilliamArtSociety #PWAS #acrylicpainting #beachphotography #visualart #artlife #supportthearts
- Use the emoticons 🖼🖌🎨📷 when posting on your social sites. Beach artwork? Use those emoticons.
- Share what you do - visually. Create a video about the process you use to create your art (OR photography, OR digital art)
- Be a role model for other artists. If they find you and love your art, they'll look up to you and you can teach them various aspects of what you do. Record workshops, classes, and do live spots.
- Engage with your followers, comments the post, feedback they give - and find various ways to do that.
- What's the story behind the scenes? Can you engage your audience with the hidden meaning of your artwork, the inspiration and/or the reason you do what you do?
- Collaborate with other artists. Perhaps create a joint live session. Help each other out with the comments, reposting, sharing, etc.
- Content is KING! New, fresh, consistent posting is how to keep your followers engaged and coming back for more. See https://www.allshemakes.org/blog/50-social-media-content-ideas-for-artists
- Cliffhangers...build suspense. Slowly reveal what you are working on. Find enticing ways to do that.
- Don't be that used car salesman. Do use a call for action.
- Remind your followers of past work. Not everyone sees everything so periodically resurrect older artwork.
- Track your Stats. See what is working, what is engaging and what is not.
