Hot Cakes - create a mini collection of art to sell!

  • Course
  • 17 Lessons

Create a collection of artworks to sell like hot cakes! Build anticipation from the start and decide on a marketing approach ideal for you. Decide what to paint and carefully price your work. Watch me create a mini collection of acrylic still-life paintings. This is a self-paced, lifetime access course with an optional group if you'd like to share your work for feedback and you can ask me anything privately.

“I have just completed this course and I just wanted to tell you how wonderful it is. You really have created a gem, packed with ideas, encouragement and honesty. Thank you Gabs! I can’t wait to let the ideas percolate although knowing me in the end I won’t have any plan I will just let rip and see what happens! I hope this course reaches people far and wide because it’s a genius project, beautifully put together, broken down into bite sized manageable tasks and incredible value for money! Brigitte xx”

Hello

I’m Gabriella Buckingham, a fine artist, and your teacher for this self-paced, lifetime access course.

I’ve been a working artist for over 30 years and creating lessons for budding artists since 2018. I’ve illustrated several children’s books, hundreds of greeting cards, romantic fiction illustrations and my own children’s gift brand which I ran for 10 years. I’m always learning and love to share what I know.

I can't guarantee sales but even if you sell one painting shortly after you release your collection you will have covered double your course fee!

To be an artist who sells regularly we need something to sell and we need to consistently attract an audience who understands who we are and what our work can do for them. We also need to nurture that audience. That's what this course aims to help you do.

All lessons are recorded and you have access for as long as the course exists - ie. the lifetime of the course. I'm available privately to ask questions of in the course chat while you are actively in the course.  If you want to share images and ask for feedback there is an optional private group here on braveinpaint.com

Questions, questions!

If I haven't covered your question simply use the chat box on the bottom right. I'll reply as soon as possible.

If I decide this isn't for me can I have a refund?

There are no refunds for this course. Once you have paid it is yours for life so be sure before you buy. I think the course is great value. Please ask me more questions if you've watched the preview lesson and are still not sure if it's for you.

I am just learning to paint, will this course work for me?

I wouldn't say it would work immediately, but it will teach you how to think strategically, plan your marketing, and engage with your audience as you grow. You can revisit the content anytime and go through the steps when you are ready. Also if you're learning to paint with acrylics or are interested in still life and how to work on a small series then the videos of me painting will be really helpful to you.

Can I have one to one feedback on my work?

Only in the free group which is available for anyone taking the course. ie your work will be visible to anyone else taking the course who decides to join the group, but I can give you feedback there. You can ask me private questions about anything else one to one anytime you're working on the course but you cannot send me images privately.
