Get Paid To Draw And Make A Living From It

​Are you good at drawing? Did you know that putting your artistry on online can earn you enough cash to help you make a living? Drawing is more than a fun thing, or a means to get a few bucks. We mean the kind of drawing that you can stare someone you're talking to and in minutes, draw a caricature of them! Yes, flawless drawing! It's fun to get paid for doing what you love doing. Has the idea of becoming an entrepreneur by venturing into the business of drawing to get paid ever come to your mind? Well, now you know that if you can paint, sketch and draw anything extraordinary enough to impress people, someone will pay you to have it. 

​How do you get paid to draw?

​The Internet has incorporated almost everything you can imagine, including drawing. But the unfortunate thing is, many fine artists with great talent aren't yet aware of how the Internet has turned drawing into a gold mine. With tools such as email, digital media and downloads, the industry has gone modern and is running short of artists and whatever creations they can come up with. Just release your artistic magic via drawing and your appreciation from the buying companies, advertisement agencies and publishers will come in dollars.

​Bring out the artist in you

​You just have to stay and draw in the comfort of your home if you're a freelancer. Simply bring out that incredible artist in you by sketching, drawing images and submitting them to your client's email and receiving your remunerations. It's a great work-at-home opportunity for freelancers, housewives and starters. But for established artists, your studio will serve you better. 

​Open your online store

​Once you know that you're on top of your game, open your own online store to sell a variety of top-notch art work such as hand-drawn portraits, posters, greeting cards, your pictures and all other impressive items. There are crafter websites that won't receive a dollar from you if you want to set up your shop on their site. However, you may have to give them a percentage of the sales you make since they host your shop. Note that you'll be the one setting your prices and adding photos to the site for shoppers to browse through before ordering. 

​Create a portfolio of your drawing

​Do you know that creating a portfolio of your artists' work gives your potential clients the impression that you're worth it? The best way to hire an expert is to see what they have already done. Your portfolio is a picture of your track record. Look for a reliable online hosting website. Choose either a free one or that which requires a subscription fee depending on your pocket. You can build a work website too. Besides, you'll have to learn about how websites work to be able to do it right.

​How Much Can You Get Paid to Draw?

Getting paid to draw doesn't only reward you with more cash but gets it coming faster. It means instant cash if you've built a name for yourself so that your clients become stable just like the resultant income influx. That makes drawing for you even more exciting. Top-earning comic artists on Patreon take home from $3,000 to $20,000 per month. The clients or employers you draw to, will pay you pretty regularly, like on weekly, monthly or immediately after-job basis.

Online drawing for pay comes with a stable earning, and that's the reason lots of artists start off as employees who also do their own thing at the side. When they get enough fans online that love their artistic genius, they quit and start working from home or in their own office for themselves. 

​The better your reputation, the more you earn

If your drawing is good enough, it'll not only put plenty of dollars in your pocket, it'll also earn you a good reputation which is the biggest asset an artist needs. Besides, you only need creativity, a PC, and Internet access. Also note that even if you have never been drawing as an artist, you can still give drawing a short. Your skill may be good enough to be paid for by some clients out there. Many people have made it this way and eventually developed into big name artists.

Remember, drawing is just a talent you can develop. Some people don't even know their drawing prowess until they try it. Learning how to draw or improve your drawing skills is very recommendable. Artists are always learning from somewhere or self-teaching themselves. The only reason companies can accept your drawing is when it portrays excellent image creation. Submitting your work online can also be done via digital files, and it's pretty simple. If handling the digital part of the work is challenging because you're not a technical person, learn it first to be able to operate more conveniently. 

​Why do people pay for drawing? 

First off, drawings are fascinating works of art to look at, and most importantly, they play an immense role in a commercial sense and more. The Internet hosts millions of images which keep expanding. Images are also a rich source of information and the high volume online, keeps increasing in all formats, photographic, artistic and written. Did you know that the Internet has an enormous insatiable taste for new art? All those many fantastic images you find on the Internet come from artists like you and what you have in your portfolio or digital file are drawings people need to buy and use.

Since there are clients out there who eagerly want to pay for your artistic prowess, it's time you get to work and make some money. Get as creative as you can to supply them with as many drawings as you have time to create. The fact is that artists who knew about getting paid to draw early on are already enjoying the fruits of their labor and you should join in and start making money too. Working from home by doing what you usually do for fun is quite fulfilling if you get paid for it. Also, if the images you draw get downloaded thousands of times that makes you really proud of yourself.
