Does anyone sell actual art work? I'm not talking about gay prints or commissions, but actual physical pieces you've drawn or painted and then sold privately or in a gallery.

I've sold a couple of A6-sized illustrations. Traditionally drawn and colored with markers.
Because of their size, similar to a postcard, they're relatively inexpensive to ship within my country (MEX).
However, interestingly, I've sold almost all of my pieces to faraway places like Germany. Destinations where the price is equal to (or even exceeds) the price of the illustration ($25).

I'm more of an "anime bitches in a white void" type of guy but I've sold some paintings for a few hundred. They were commissions of sorts, the guy would show me around the house, decide which walls looked boring, we'd figure out what shapes and colors would work and I'd deliver him a painting the next week.

I wouldn't call this art, this was more of a decoration thing, and most of my customers were friends of relatives, but maybe you can just call interior designers, there might be actual demand for unique paintings that don't look like they came from IKEA and make a room look cooler.

Anon this is what most normies think art IS. It's why they tend to both see no value in digital art. It's also why they generate the most boring AI slop - zero value, it's just "haha internet picture! look its an old lady dunking a basketball!" and then they forget about it the next day.

I did a full color geisha version of this Komono Dragon, and sold it for $50 back in the late 80s.
