Dear friends! I want to tell you about my experiences. Over the past six months, my work has stopped attracting attention at auctions. I tried to fix it: I studied new ideas, looked at the work of other artists, published my work on holidays. But it didn't help. I have become very critical of my work. It seemed to me all the time that no one would like them. And this was confirmed: my work received few likes and no one placed bets. I tried to change the situation: I reread the books on drawing. But it didn't help. I stopped drawing altogether. Maybe you can help me?

Advertising yourself on other sites can help make people notice you. I think times are also a bit tough right now so people are less willing to spend money sadly...

I’ll be honest that repeat customers can usually help you in or. Way, the tough part at least for me was bidding on your stuff with previous experiences making the price harder to justify. Your art can be great (and it surely is, I’ve liked a lot of your work) but your not just drawing your selling, and money can be a pretty big thing that fuels people to be more critical before a purchase is made.

You are in a slump. This will happen sometimes, even to the best of us. The only thing you can do is keep working until you get through it. At least that is what people tell me when I am in a writing slump as I am in now. Maybe you can do just random doodles that can be adopted? Beyond that, I have no idea what to tell you.

Best advice I can give, artist to artist is to try and do things that are currently popular or trendy; as they're more likely to get noticed/picked. Promoting your auctions off-site in other spaces & on the discord server too can also help with boosting chances of bidders.
