Monster-Con is done, we had a great time and now it's time to look towards the future for Raven Nightwing Creations. I have a lot of things I want to do, so I've decided to work on some new projects in different art mediums. I have always loved nature photography, and have dabbled in it for a few years, but never really did a lot with it. I am thinking of working more with it and see where that leads. I am also going to try my hand at resin art and upcycling furniture.
To be honest, sales this past weekend weren't where I wanted them. I got tons of people saying they liked my canvasses, but not a lot of buyers. I had one woman buy 5 though. I think that most of my stuff was to classic for the folks there so I need to update and modernize things.
Art is difficult sometimes. It depends on so many factors that can't be controlled, like the type of folks coming by the booth and their ages and what is popular right then. I am conflicted as to whether I should stay with the things I have done and hope I get sales or if I should follow the crowd and do what's "in". Maybe a bit of both?
Today I am going to set up an Etsy shop and see how that goes. Maybe things will work better this way. I will be dong other cons, just not until after the first of the year. I need time to work stuff out and get it organized. I will continue working on things though. For now, here are a couple of pics from Monster-Con with some new friends I made :)
