Review by Library Journal Review

This book discusses a topic that seldom comes up in art school: the business of art and how to make a living as an artist. There are lots of useful ideas for harnessing the power of the Internet and social media on behalf of one's artwork. Huff (TheAbundantArtist.com) begins by deconstructing the myth of the starving artist, then explains the numerous ways art is sold today, and finally details marketing strategies such as creating effective websites, blogging, and promotion through social media. Huff also helps readers articulate the stories of their creations as a way of connecting with potential buyers. VERDICT Any artist who is ready to treat their art career seriously will want to check this guide out. © Copyright 2016. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
