Course Description

Overview

In this class, I'll show you how to create printable wall art using text and quotes. We'll be using Canva as the design tool, and Etsy as the sales tool for these products. 

Printable wall art is a huge market on Etsy. Customers are increasingly seeking new prints for their walls as decor trends rapidly change. The printable wall art market is a great option for customers as its affordable and supports independent artists and designers. It's also great for those designers, as we don't have to keep any inventory or worry about shipping!

Word art specifically is a great option as its versatile, aesthetically appealing, and you can create it without any special artistic abilities. You just need a good design sense, which is what we'll discuss in this course!

Together, we're going to cover the following topics:

  • Design Styles and Trends
  • Technical Design Tips for Text (for Canva, but can be applied generally)
  • Understanding Copyright for Text and Quotes
  • Creating the Deliverable for Your Customer
  • Tips for Listing Your Word Art on Etsy
  • Other Places to Sell Your Word Art (Beyond Etsy)
