2) Other platform websites

when uploading works on these platforms, it is best to pay more attention to the targeted uploading of commercial hotspots and upload them in series, which will double the effect.
2. Peripheral products
1) Self-owned intranet:
You can open your own shop here, so you need to have your own traffic. It can also be sold on behalf of the company, and the share of sales revenue will be much less, but the products can be sold through the traffic of the platform. Before this, I simply uploaded a few pictures, and the very simple pictures sold a few lists pleasantly, but because it was for sale, the income was not very high, but it was also a small channel for continuous income.
2) Taobao shop cooperation:
After you continue to increase your exposure and promote yourself, some Taobao shops will take the initiative to seek your cooperation. There are two ways for shops to cooperate:
You set the price
For example, a T-shirt shop has its own floor price, which will let you set the price. The money you earn is the price you set minus the floor price of the shop.
pricing (you decide) = store floor price+price difference (earning)
earning commission
For example, a decorative painting shop will give 5% ~ 11% of its monthly sales, which will be given at the specified time every month.
3) Open your own shop:
Taobao shop or micro shop. This requires you to bring your own traffic and have a certain popularity. Many people like your paintings very much, so you can open your own shop and sell some peripheral products made by your own illustrations. For example, T-shirts, notebooks, mobile phone cases, canvas bags, pillows and so on.
4) Publishing books:
Illustration books or picture books can continuously earn royalties.
5) Off-line large-scale illustration activities:
For example, illustration carnival, Singularity Art Festival, China International Illustrator Hundred People Exhibition and other activities. Here, you can constantly sell your own peripheral products, and you can also meet many illustrators in the same industry. Many merchants will come here to find illustrators, which will give you more possibilities and opportunities.

Teaching assistant: It can not only bring some income, but also bring huge network resources, and accelerate the growth with teachers.

Common platforms include cctalk, Qianchao, Netease Cloud Classroom, Tiger Class Network, Blue Pencil, etc.
6. Participate in competitions
Stand Cool, UI China, vision china and Graffiti Kingdom. These websites often publish many competitions related to illustrations. Shenzhen Dafen Oil Painting Village recruits painters?
First of all, you must know your own strength. Even if you come from major domestic fine arts institutes, it will take a long time to adapt to the integration there. It is good to make a living. Painting is a long process, and you can never finish learning. You can't make much money without three or three years. Moreover, the market is changing every day, and many old painters are hard to mix. You should be mentally prepared. There are also painters who are just a cover, and they are recruited to help them and help them make money. It is false to say that painting can make a lot of money, unless you are very famous and have a high level. In that case, you don't have to rely on others to set up your own shop. Otherwise, I suggest that we should think of another way. We can take their paintings to other big cities to open a gallery, sell them and take orders, and we can also draw them ourselves. This is safer and the best of both worlds.
