I'm an artist who's trying to get my name out there? - M - 02-18-2014 12:02 PM

I'm already known by some people in geneva switzerland because they requested me to draw some stuff for them and in return i'd get payed, which i did.

But i'm not really sure where to start here in the U.S.

Here's some of my work: https://www.behance.net/gallery/Portrait/10098663
Any tips or suggestions would be greatfulSmile
I'm new to the States

First of all i would just like to say that your artwork is amazing to put it lightly, and you should easily get artwork known.This may help though-

-Try and make blogs about your artwork and also things like facebook pages, twitter, instagram,snapchat etc social media is a good way to advertise this sort of thing
-Pay a local newspaper to advertise your artwork, many local newspapers have pages where people can pay to have an advertisement printed
-Pay for advertising places like bill-boards
-Approach art galleries to ask if they will show some artwork for you
-Hire a building for a day and have an exibition, try and advertise this to invite people
-I know this is a longshot however- Try to approach designers or highstreet shops with your work, either my sending them photos or try and meet with someone who works there

Good Luck x
