How I Sold Almost All my Art in 2 Months - by letting Spirit Guide Me
As artists, we often focus on creativity in our work, but what about in how we run our businesses? While structure and strategy are essential, sometimes stepping outside the box and embracing the creative flow in unexpected ways can lead to incredible results. What I’m about to share may sound unconventional—even surprising to some—but I hope it inspires you to trust your own intuition in both art and business.
Since Christmas, my life has taken an unexpected yet beautifully guided turn. I made the decision to leave the east coast island of Newfoundland, my home for 14 years, to move halfway across Canada and support my 92 year-old father after a sudden decline in his health. This transition is one of trust, love, and new beginnings. As part of this shift, I'll be taking a hiatus from my art for a while to help my father declutter and eventually sell his home.
Rather than storing or shipping my paintings, I was inspired to launch a ‘Make Me An Offer’ Moving Sale, allowing Spirit to guide the right people to each piece. This was more than a sale; it was an intuitive, heart-led exchange—an opportunity for longtime fans to bring my work into their lives at a price they could afford, while others stepped forward to offer full value in deep support of my transition. A group of local religious sisters even bought three pieces at full price!
To make this work, I committed to a full-on 5-week energetic push on my blog / newsletter, social media, with daily posts, videos, and more. It was a lot of work and stretched me in many ways. It caused me to grow, step outside of my comfort zones, and let go of my ego as I trusted the process and the flow of inspiration.
The results have been astounding. In just two months, I’ve sold nearly all of my artwork, bringing in more than my net income from last year—and many years past. The decisions on where each painting went weren’t based on the amount of the offer, but on the guidance of my pendulum, making blind selections to ensure each piece landed where it was meant to be. Some of my smallest paintings sold for more than larger ones—each to the right person.The process has been liberating, abundant, and full of love & synchronicities—an affirmation that trusting the flow brings unimaginable blessings.
Now, with only my Universal Law Mandala Collection left (see here), my goal is to have it all placed by April 15th. As I prepare to step into this new chapter with my father, I feel light, free, and deeply grateful. This experience has reaffirmed my faith in the mystery of change, the power of inspired action, and the beauty of releasing with trust.
I'd been mostly silent here since last fall's 7-day challenge and felt a desire to update the group.
Thank you for witnessing this journey with me. May we all continue to create and move forward with openness, joy, and faith in the unfolding path ahead.
With love and gratitude,
Dominique
