admin answers:
I have and others have had more luck than I. It costs nothing to try. Sign up at these sites and give it a shot. Theyre all free and you really have nothing to lose.
Imagekind sells your art as prints framed or unframed and with or without mats
Zazzle sells your art the same way as Imagekind and you have the option of selling your art printed on a variety of products as well.
CafePress works like Zazzle but the free stores they offer are smaller. You can open multiple free stores on CafePress but that makes thing inconvenient.
All these sites take the orders, produce the products, ship the products and handle all customer communication. You simply provide the art and collect your royalties. You dont transfer ownership of your art to them but you grant them a non-exclusive license to use your art to produce the products. You still retain full ownership rights.
Im pretty sure there are other sites which also allow you to post your art for sale.

I have a bunch of online stores, plus I’m the president of the Digital Artists of Columbus, so I have some authority in the field of online + digital art sales. The vast majority of what I sell online comes from people that saw a show in person. I would consider ebay the best way to sell work as an unknown, if you create a really awesome posting. However, nothing beats cross-promotion from online to physical real galleries. You’re more likely to sell in person with a website, and vice versa.
