You need to find your own appealing artistic gimmick. Like this guy here:

The first video is the most important I think. He is what you're looking for. He's not a "superstar", he's just a competent artist who found that what you're looking for, a "saleable thing", something that a random normie will put in a wall because it looks good enough for him and it is a real art piece. Landscapes related to certain themes always work best. You better avoid "sophisticated themes" that can end up looking "kitschy" on a room. It needs to evoke simplicity, harmony, beauty, and subdued elegance. That if you want to appeal to a big market. You can be a crazy genius and come up with a crazy bizarre shit only can do an "the right kind" of people will pay whatever you ask for it, but that comes with its own weird package, if you're gonna be "le eccentric crazy artiste" then you have to live that life and sell that persona, to that wealthy "special crowd".

Along the lines of what this guy said:

I visit open studios a handful of times a year. Not individual studios, but old mill buildings with 60 to 80 artists working within. Most of the space is upper floor rooms with large windows, and the artists are painting (sculpting, printing, etc.) small groups of work within a theme, then they bounce to another. The themes are complex sometimes, and the work isn't always obviously aesthetic or digestible.

On the ground floor is a series of galleries with white walls, large glass fronts, and shoplike entrances. These studios are all producing collage or silhouette work with coral patterns or people on swings with wisps of hair flowing behind them. Enter, and you'll see essentially the same elements in slightly different arrangements with a variety of safe colors. They are targeted at people looking for home decor. If you cannot find what you want, you can literally bring them color swatches from your living room and they will reproduce any of their art in hues that suit. Eight or ten thousand for a painting about 5 foot wide. These artists have the best and most accessible spaces presumably because they are selling a lot more reliably than the upper floor artsy folks.

From an artistic standpoint, their work is boring as fuck. But it is interesting to see to puzzle out how and why they are winning.

I'm not saying there is no other way to be successful. I'm just relating what I've seen out there.

I’ve been told that boomers really like pet portraits. And human portraits too obviously
