Any UK based artists able to offer any advice? Would be greatly appreciated!😌 #art #arthelp #ukartist #sellingartinternationally #traditionalart

Artists from the UK who are selling
internationally...
How are you doing so?
What selling platforms/ post services are you using etc?
Etsy feels like a
minefield with customs stuff, EU
rules and US tariffs.
Ebay has a global shipping service but you can't sell original fine art Imao E
I want to make paintings/prints
available internationally but everything seems insanely complicated rn.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
