I think the hardest part of business is getting past the idea that "I produce things that I want people to buy" and getting to the point that your idea of business is that "I make things that people are wanting to buy". You may love what you make, but if no one wants those things, then you are making things for no reason. Find something that people want to buy that you know how to make or acquire and supply those things for them to purchase.

The thing is, the main idea would be to sell my art. Otherwise it's just doing commerce, focusing on maximizing profit. And this is exactly why I don't want to have the store.
I understand. I suppose, the way to do that is to do it like anyone else. Create an online Gallery, present your Gallery to art outlets for promotion or inclusion and then when someone wants to acquire a piece, then haggle over price. Hopefully you don't become a true artist, though. They never seem to sell anything until their DEAD! OoO
Best of luck in whatever you do, though.

Exactly. We have this huge advantage of having an online portfolio and marketplace, we can reach basically everyone who has access to internet and reduces costs as well.

That's a danger I don't have to face 😁
