Would you be interested in this?

Hi.

I am 13 and am thinking of starting a business with a main focus around saltwater aquarium fish, corals, and invertebrate art. If anyone is interested, below is some information on how I draw. I will put a sample of my artwork at the very bottom of this thread for whoever is interested.

%60 of my earnings would go to ocean conservation

My drawing style:

I like to make my art as realistic as I can

What do I draw with:

I've had the most practice with color pencils, pencil art, and watercolors, but I know how to paint if that is what you want.

Pricing:

Always negotiable. Most of my drawing are on 12x9 inch water color papers, which would be probably $25, but always depends on the picture itself. If you want a piece of artwork larger or smaller, just let me know and i'll change the size

What do I draw?

Let me know what you are interested in and I will tell you if i'll do it. I mainly focus on fish, corals, and inverts, but I could do a drawing of a whole tank, a drawing of the ocean, etc.

Shipping:

For shipping, if you pay over $50, it will be free shipping. If you pay less, depending on the size of the artwork, or the amount, there will be a shipping cost, probably of $3 or so.

Extra info

I don't have a website yet unfortunately, so if you have any questions just ask me here. If i decide to go along with this idea, I will have a website soon!

If you have any other questions, ask them either in the conversations or here in the thread.

If you want, I can add a background of the ocean for a little extra money.



This is a drawing I did today, it is the only drawing I have so far, but more is going to be made.

I'm not in the market right now myself, but I commend you for your ambition and wish you luck with your new business!

Tell you what. Let me think on it and I will commission you for a couple of pieces based on the simple fact that you are young, passionate, and actually wanting to work at such a young age.
I’ll send you a private message with a few conceptual ideas.

Same here. I can't let a hard working 13 yr old not get some work!! That's awesome and kudos to your parents for instilling hard work ethic and to yourself for doing it! I'll talk to the wife and let you know. I'm sure she will want a sea turtle of sorts

 

[Lost in the Sauce]

Well done young artist.

I'm impressed with your drive and ambition.

You need some reinforcements bro?

 

[Ro Bow]

Wow thanks everyone! I am surprised to see so many people interested!

I have to jump on board here and have to support your ambitions @DweltAlloy033
My father worked in watercolor and when I was younger I enjoyed sketching with ink pens and colored pencils. I think it’s super cool you’re wanting to contribute to ocean conservation as well.

I would be interested in a snake drawing.
Snakes are my wifes hobby and she has been drawing since she was 4. She is into welding now.
I have a rainbow boa myself.
Here are 2 oil paintings she has done and a pencil drawing for some ideas, and a couple snakes.

Anyone thats 13 and wants to.
work is amazing in todays world.
She sold the tuna for $600 and the arowana for $500 and both are canvas oil paintings.

As far as reef pics something like this would be cool. I just took it today.

I commend your ambition and second that I would be most willing to commission a piece from you.

I also applaud your desire to donate to worthy causes such as Ocean Conservation.

Here is what I propose. I believe many will agree... Life is hard. School is expensive. 20% for replacement art supplies. 80% towards your education.

Are you willing to submit a solid plan towards how you will accomplish this?

oh thanks!

My plan is to draw and sell my drawing while also contributing to conserving the worlds ocean, until I go to college. Then when I am out of college and have more time, I will continue to draw whenever I find the time, which I hope will be often . If I sell a few art pieces this year, next year I will sell my art at local farmers markets, and slowly go forwards.
