A Spring Surprise!
Yesterday I had a Spring Surprise. I was out on Squidoo and noticed a billboard on the right hand top of the page was featuring five Zazzle products, and one of them looked very familiar. It was one of my art designs that I had done a few years ago called "Mondrian 2", which I had done in the style of Mondrian.
Then I was on another site and saw a different Zazzle billboard, which was vertical on the right side of the page and there it was again. Then I got an email from Zazzle that one of my products had sold - and, guess what? - it was "Mondrian 2". I've seen the billboards come up several times since then and I'm still amazed. I've never had that happen before.
It kind of gave me a lesson in the importance of getting exposure and the resulting traffic, which is what we should be learning here at WA. Anyway it was a happy event and here is a picture of the billboard with my product on the far left.
Here's a picture of the product itself that you see when you click on it in the billboard....

Jonart, nice piece of art. I have a friend who has been trying to sell art for 4 years. Glad you sold some. : Bill
I'm kind of a veteran of this, I sold my first painting when I was about 16 and that was 57 years ago......my how time flies. Tell your friend to keep on trying. I appreciate your reading the post.
I think it's great that you sold a piece of your art. Most artists never see this happen, so it must feel great. Success isn't just monetary, so whatever you were paid, I think it would be so fullfilling, just to have people enjoyed your work.
Right on Kyla05, it's the joy of seeing somebody really wanting to own it that makes it worthwhile. The income is secondary. Thanks for reading the post. :)
