Original Post: Portrait Commissions?
I looked for a FAQ but haven't found one.. and I didn't see any questions about this on the first page here, so I'll ask.
I am interested in doing portraits to help supplement the costs of college, but I don't know where to market myself. Are there any magazines or places to put ads? I've tried various bulletin boards around town, and all my tags with my contact info gets pulled, but I've only received 2 calls and I couldn't get back in touch with either one. A friend also suggested I contact my local paper and see if they'll do an article about me.. a sort of local human interest story.
So, besides bulletin boards around town (which I will still do), where can I promote my skill and get commissions? Has anybody had experience with this?
