The Hidden Gem of AI Art Sales: Why ArtRage Might Be the Best Commission Out There

If you’ve been frustrated with platforms that take 40% (or more) of your profit while giving your art almost no visibility, you’re not alone. Many AI artists assume Etsy and Redbubble are their only options—but there’s a growing marketplace designed specifically for AI art that pays creators more and buries them less.

That platform is ArtRage—and if you’re not on it yet, here’s why you might want to reconsider.

What Is ArtRage?

ArtRage is a curated online marketplace built just for AI-generated images. Unlike generic print-on-demand sites, this platform caters to buyers who already appreciate AI art—and know exactly what they’re looking for.

Instead of throwing your work into a sea of unrelated products, ArtRage organizes everything into clean, visually focused galleries, making it easier for customers to browse and actually buy.

Why It Pays More

Let’s talk numbers. Most marketplaces take a hefty cut from your sales—sometimes leaving you with $1–$2 per print. Not ArtRage.

ArtRage offers a 70% commission rate for creators. That means when your work sells, you actually get paid what it's worth.

Even better? There’s no listing fee and no pressure to constantly churn out new designs just to stay visible. The platform is built around quality over quantity.

What Sells Well on ArtRage?

Because it’s an AI-focused marketplace, ArtRage tends to attract a more niche, visually adventurous audience. Think:

  • Surreal dreamscapes

  • Dark fantasy and cosmic horror

  • Bold portraits and character art

  • Sci-fi or cyberpunk aesthetics

  • Moody, narrative-driven environments

Cohesive series tend to perform best—especially if your work tells a story or feels like it could belong in a gallery or a game concept portfolio.

How to Get Accepted

ArtRage is curated, which means not everyone gets in automatically—but that’s part of what makes it work. The quality bar protects creators from oversaturation and keeps the platform visually strong.

Your application is more likely to be accepted if you:

  • Upload a consistent and polished portfolio

  • Fix common flaws (like distorted hands or weird anatomy)

  • Format your images for large-scale viewing

Learn to Format Your Work Like a Pro

Getting into platforms like ArtRage—and making consistent sales—comes down to more than just prompting cool images. You need to:

✔ Know your aspect ratios
✔ Spot and fix AI flaws
✔ Upscale properly
✔ Package your work to look intentional, not random

That’s exactly what I teach in my course.
 If you’re ready to go from “I made this cool image” to “I’m actually making sales,”

Zazzle for AI Artists: Product Ideas That Actually Sell

A Look at the Ethics, Lawsuits, and Ongoing Debate

Is Selling AI Art Legal? AI art has moved faster than most of us could keep up with. One day it was a curious tool for experimenting with prompts. The next, it was a wildfire—producing fully rendered images in seconds and flooding marketplaces with a kind of work that wasn’t supposed to be possible without years of training. And like every new creative technology, AI art has brought legal confusion, moral panic, and a lot of angry yelling online. So, let’s slow things down and ask the core question: Is it legal—and ethical—to sell AI-generated art? The short answer: it’s complicated. The long answer: that’s what this post is for. The Legal System Hasn’t Caught Up Right now, the law is still lagging far behind the tech. There’s no single answer to the legality of selling AI-generated images—because different countries, platforms, and courts are still trying to define what AI art even is . In the U.S., the Copyright Office has made its stance clear: AI-generated work isn’t eligible for c...

Art, Medicine, and the Role of the Human in an AI World

Art, Medicine, and the Role of the Human in an AI World In an age where machines can mimic a Rembrandt and diagnose a tumor faster than a radiologist, it’s natural to ask: What role is left for humans? That question isn’t just philosophical—it’s deeply personal. Especially for artists, educators, caregivers, and anyone whose work relies on intuition, interpretation, or presence. As AI grows smarter, faster, and more capable, many fear we’re entering a world that won’t need us anymore. But the truth may be far more interesting. The Illusion of Full Replacement AI can generate beautiful images. It can analyze medical scans with stunning precision. It can compose music, write code, and even simulate empathy in text. But in every domain it touches, a gap remains—subtle, but unmissable. Because AI doesn’t feel. It doesn’t reflect. It doesn’t stand in the messy space between “known” and “unknown” with someone and say, “I don’t know either—but I’m here.” In both art and medicine, that space ...
