I started making art a couple of years ago and have not been consistent. In the past year or so I've become more determined to create something I liked. I did some learning, did some attempting and I now have a somewhat consistent art style. Thing is I don't get a lot of feedback or (attention is the wrong word, I apologize for that, but bare with me) attention, I don't get many bids in auctions even on customs and especially with doing pretty well in the rumble I expected people to want some of my work. I'm just curious what it is about it, do I need to improve on something or are my ideas just not popular? Do people not like my style? I want to create something that I am proud of and people enjoy seeing, any critique is welcomed, be mean, I want to improve. If you've read this far, you have my thanks.
Some of my favorite recents (newest to oldest)
I was thinking about opening shop because I'm running out of my own ideas but didn't know what how to price them, so I figured a custom and some YHHs would do the job, I was wrong, and I would still love some critique on that. Thank you guys! I appreciate it! <3

Honestly, I believe that auctions are a poor way of how to judge interest. It seems a lot of people tend to not frequent auctions. My shop is full 99.9% of the time, yet my auctions receive 1-3 bids each.
I would say to open an art shop and see what interest you get.

If you don't get any interest, I would say it is likely your art style. The vast majority of the art sold on here is fairly realistic. The horses in your pieces are beautifully done, but highly stylistic and cartoonish. I think that sort of style can sometimes clash with a realistic background.
Perhaps try your hand at a more realistic style. I'm happy to answer any questions you might have about getting started. :)

I agree with Willow 110% right here:

Also, I think it might help if you work on your lighting and getting the horse to "fit" into the background better color-wise. Also, a small thing that goes a LONG way is bluring the background. Not the whole image, just most of the image behind the horse. I feel like that would really help you a lot.

Thank you! I really appreciate it. I do completely repaint my horses which definitely gives them a softer look. I do want to work on more detailed shading that will give a sharper appearance. How would you price my work in a shop? (Thinking tier 2 but not sure)

I feel like 50k would be a good place to start and if it seems like you are getting a lot of orders, up the price. That's my recommendation :)
Definitely work on that background blurring, it'll help the horse's softer appearence blend with the realistic background a bit better. I can give some examples if you need :)
