I carve soapstone and I'm very good at it, how can I promote by creations?
I am one of soapstone carvings and sculptors created the most there. I've only been at it for a few years, but I can with my own hyold best of the best. However, I lack of ideas on how to promote and sell my art. This is not a cheap hobby and I need recover my losses on some serious sales. I tried ebay and forget it! Ebay is the worst for self promotion for artists. Buyers take advantage you and the selling price is just a joke and even cover my materials. Where can I try?
