How would you promote artistry drawn with markers?

Question

people have always identified the art medium as color pencil for 27 years, and from those people who know famous techniques have mentioned them in my work (I have never studied the famous nor do I use color pencil) I'm selftaught. What do you suggest I do? I'm not word vocabulary to explain things well. see website: www.masterartist.mysite.com

Answer 1

I'm impressed with your work. It has a poetry feel to it. I'm even more impressed with your bio. I also do art which defies a particular label. Actually I know several artist who use the medium of markers. Just identify your work as having been done in permanent marker. If you use a special brand such as Prismacolor, then you might consider including that in the description. Call them paintings if you wish. I would suggest that you photograph your work (or scan it) with a nice white beveled mat. It is a professional touch that will add much to your presentation of your work. If you have photoshop, you can add mats on scanned photos of your work which is another option. It would be nice if your photos were able to be enlarged for detail. Be sure to watermark them with a copyright, otherwise people will copy your work. Again, your work is quite good. I would heartily encourage you to continue.
