One of my dream jobs is to make art in my house and sell it on the internet. Recently on the internet I stumbled upon a graduate from my alma mater who is doing just that. Her name is Carlen Altman and she lives in Brooklyn, New York. Her product is a necklace in the style of a Catholic rosary with the crosses replaced with Stars of Davids and the like. The style is Brooklyn Jewish hipster (or not), and the manner in which her product took off was when her necklace was photographed around the neck of model Agyness Deyn. On the side Carlen is also a comedian and also does random other art projects on the side when she's not assembling Jewish rosaries. How to accomplish this feat, you ask? A few steps to consider.
1.) The Idea
Is your artsy idea practically made in the confines of your home? Can the design be efficiently made? Is there a niche for what you're selling? Are there already multiple sellers of the same object on Etsy or Ebay?
Are you willing to make your enterprise legit? Are you willing to advertise and get your name out there in the sake of your art? Will you make a profit?
3.) The Execution
This part is up to you, unfortunately.
