I'd like to share some painting projects my wife and I made... is it

allowed here?

Should I create a post with pics or a website?

We'd like to sell them for nominal cost, shipping from CA.

We've recently started this as a side project when we're hanging out watching tv. Got a bunch of pre-designed wood tiles & canvases, and used acrylic paint pens, gel pens and regular acrylics paints with brushes for bigger pieces.
They're mostly Halloween themed, a few fall, some fun for kid's rooms, and even a couple christmas ones. There's even some ceramic pumpkins!

Anyway, I wanted to ask first and can edit this post to show my work if allowed/desired...
Please let me know the proper procedure

I think you would have been fine in the artist forum as well... this Crafts forum doesn't get much traffic.

But maybe it *will* when you start posting stuff.

Let's see it!

I got pics... but they're not formatted or anything? I got a FB post I guess I can screenshot? Or I can make a doc and save as a pic?

I recently bought some postcards made for watercolor painting and have been sending them to my sister. I'm very much a beginner and they're not great, but it's been fun. She *did* recognize the one of her house.

Would love to see more of what you're doing!
