Brooke Cormier has been a full time artist for going on seven years, and last year she made ~$78k from JUST the sales of the original artwork and prints (that's revenue, not profits, for all you business folks out there). I recently had a chance to sit down with her and ask her about her marketing strategy, future goals, and how she survives online as an artist.
