Return Of The Living Dead Art Prints

 Return of the living dead art prints.

I drew the head of the Tarman zombie awhile back on a 30 day live stream, each day, I'd draw something completely different from the last.

Return of the Living Dead was such a classic horror comedy movie of the 1980's. Such an iconic movie of the time.

Here is a print of the colour art from the inked drawing I first created.

Unusual And Creative Ways To Sell Your Art

 The art world is brimming with creative souls, and so are the ways they choose to sell their work. Beyond the conventional galleries and online platforms, here are some unusual yet interesting avenues to explore:

1. Pop-up galleries in unexpected places: Ditch the white walls and set up shop in a vintage bus, a laundromat, or even a public park. The surprise factor attracts attention and generates buzz around your art.

2. Art vending machines: Imagine your artwork dispensed right next to a candy bar! Vending machines offer an interactive and accessible way to sell smaller pieces like prints or stickers.

3. Collaborations with businesses: Partner with local cafes, bars, or bookstores to display your work. Your art adds ambiance, while you gain exposure to a new customer base.

4. Interactive installations: Go beyond static canvases and create live, participatory art experiences. This could involve light projections, audience-driven creations, or even temporary tattoos featuring your designs.

5. Augmented reality (AR) experiences: Overlay your artwork on buildings, public spaces, or even people's phones through AR apps. This creates a unique and memorable way to engage with your art.

6. Upcycled art and found objects: Turn everyday items into new artistic creations. Transform discarded tires into sculptures, paint on old furniture, or create intricate mosaics from broken glass.

7. Art barters and exchanges: Organize events where artists swap works or trade their skills for services. This fosters community, supports fellow artists, and expands your collection.

8. Public art projects: Pitch your ideas for murals, sculptures, or installations in public spaces. This leaves a lasting mark on your community and broadens your audience.

9. Crowdfunding platforms: Utilize platforms like Kickstarter or Patreon to raise funds for specific art projects or even ongoing creative endeavors. This allows fans to directly support your artistic journey.

10. Subscription boxes: Curate boxes featuring limited-edition prints, sketches, or even mini-workshops, delivered monthly to subscribers. This creates a recurring revenue stream and fosters a close connection with your audience.

Remember, the key is to be creative, think outside the box, and experiment! Embrace the unconventional and let your personality and artistic vision shine through. As always, authenticity and engagement are key to attracting new audiences and finding success in the world of art.

How To Use Augmented Reality Experiences To Sell Your Art

Using Augmented Reality (AR) experiences to sell your art can be a powerful and innovative way to engage potential buyers and boost your sales. Here are some ways you can do it:

Visualization and Scale:

• Place artworks in potential buyers' spaces: AR apps can superimpose your artwork onto walls, shelves, or other surfaces in the user's environment. This allows them to visualize how the piece would look in their own home or office, helping them overcome size and scale concerns.
• Create interactive exhibits: Build AR experiences that let viewers explore your artwork in detail, revealing hidden layers, animations, or additional information. This adds a layer of interactivity and intrigue, making the art more immersive and memorable.

Marketing and Engagement:

• AR-powered previews: Share snippets of your art through social media or email campaigns, using AR to allow followers to view and interact with the pieces instantly. This generates excitement and curiosity, driving traffic to your website or online store.
• Virtual galleries and exhibitions: Host virtual exhibitions or pop-up galleries using AR platforms. This allows you to reach a wider audience than a physical location could, and offers a unique and accessible way to showcase your work.
• Interactive storytelling: Use AR to weave narratives around your art, linking it to historical events, personal anecdotes, or other contextual information. This adds depth and meaning to your work, fostering a deeper connection with potential buyers.

Sales and Ownership:

• AR-enabled purchasing: Integrate AR experiences with your online store, allowing buyers to see the artwork in their space before purchasing. This can increase confidence and lead to higher conversion rates.
• NFTs with AR components: Combine your artwork with NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) and unlock exclusive AR experiences for owners. This adds value to your digital assets and creates a community around your work.
• Location-based AR experiences: Create AR art installations in public spaces that viewers can access with their smartphones. This can generate buzz and awareness around your work, leading to new sales opportunities.

Platforms and Tools:

There are various platforms and tools available to help you create AR experiences for your art:

• Artivive: A popular platform for artists to share and sell AR-enhanced artwork.
• EchoesAR: An AR creation platform offering various features for artists, including interactive elements and spatial mapping.
• MeshLabs: Offers tools for 3D scanning and modeling, allowing you to create AR-ready versions of your physical artwork.
• Instagram and Facebook Spark AR Studio: Create and share AR filters on these platforms to reach a wider audience.

Remember, the key to using AR effectively is to create compelling and interactive experiences that showcase your art in a unique and engaging way. Focus on adding value to the viewer's experience, not just promoting the sale. If you can do that, you'll be well on your way to using AR to take your art sales to the next level.
