How do you become a freelance artist?

To be a freelance artist, you need to have the right skills, education, and passion. Nowadays, it isn't enough being a graduate of an Ivy League school. Your work needs to speak for you. Take pictures of your artistic works and put them online in your website. You may also use plenty of free or subscription-fee based online galleries on the web. You can also connect with artist's groups or use social media to promote yourself. If you would like to connect with a network of professionals, you can try LinkedIn. Once you have a presence online, that's the time where you can sign up, create a profile, and bid for design jobs on many freelancing sites on the web.
