What it takes

Hey there, Christian here. What it takes. What it takes to be successful, to sell art, to produce art and to stay motivated throughout the process.

In a world where everything is swiping and consuming hours of YouTube videos selling photos is a bit like being in the 1980s. But that’s a wonderful thing. Having some physical art hanging on your walls can freshen up the scene and bring back memories of a nice trip to somewhere, feel free to fill in the blanks for you. People buy art for millions of pounds by now famous artists. Mind you they weren’t famous when they were alive.

So I’m hoping not to become famous after my death but rather inspire people to enjoy fine art and to fill your homes with mine. It’s gonna be worth it. Why? Because I understand that you might not want to travel to Bali but would appreciate a nice print on your wall showing a gorgeous sunrise or sunset over a mountain range. Or a nice photo of Tenerife depicting a lovely small charming town captured in black and white. Prints and art in general shouldn’t just be limited to downloads and some backgrounds on computers. The tactile experience is what matters and to see and “feel” a photo is something else entirely.

I’ve just embarke on my adventure and will be continuing to do so. So I invite you to follow me and build a community of not just followers, but likeminded people.
