I have no problem selling as I have been in sales since 1979.  My problem is that I am not that internet savy as I am a dinosaur when it comes to tech credibility.  I did more or less what you steered me to do.  I opened a web site and I have a presence on Etsy.  I am getting approx 3 hits a day on Etsy, but most are other artist attempting to get me to follow them, some I have become friends with.  I feel that some people are copying my work but this is not what bothers me.  I am just not getting inquiries.  Could you take a quick peek at my etsy site and give me some ideas how I could improve my Etsy site.  I am trying to sell mostly prints, but I feel that my prices might be too high.
