Marketing your work is as important as, if not more important than, making top quality paintings. There are some big name artists out there (whom I shall not name!) whose work is so-so but they have become well paid and famous anyway. And we all know many artists whose work is excellent but who languish in obscurity.
It's a double edged sword: paint well, and market well.
