Your work are extremely beautiful! You don't have to change anything. Just for sales art works on internet we all need just wait for a lucky moment and more self-advertizing. I am not good in all this busyness. Most of my sold paintings are due to some happy occasions. I wish a good luck and a lot of success and a to continue to have a great pleasure from your art.

A few thoughts in terms of feedback: I do think that the bars on the windows of "missing lover" & "wait 4" diminish some of the beauty of your work. If there is something traditional about it, I am not aware of that and symbolically for me, it feels like the soul is enslaved by the bars. I think your type of work is very well executed in a traditional manner, that being said it puts you into a group that may be very crowded with similar experts in the genre. Perhaps you have a part of your inner talent that has been nagging at you but may feel like you would be venturing outside of the confines of traditional work...embracing those urges to shift your work slightly or even greatly, may be the key to increased sales. I have not made many sales online but have made connections via websites to get commissions. I have found that visualizing the painting sold, that when creating it helps a lot. I hold the thought that "this piece of art will attract people that MUST have it, must buy it and can easily afford it!" in my heart, and it attracts the right people. One last suggestion, in the light from the candles in your images you stay very much in the yellows. Spend some time observing the effects of candle light and see if you can find some more variation over the yellow... that will add a little more nuance to the images. Well painted, and best of luck. i look forward to seeing your next piece.
