Website won't let me. None of my customers ever come to Steemit or any of its sister applications because having FB takes up all of their time. My mom bought some of my Redbubble merch and now I can't spend the money. Artopium and all of my other websites are attached to that paypal account. I can't make changes to Artopium. This means i should probably take all of my art off of their before I get ripped off even more. I am just going to work the streets and post about it on Steemit like usual and hope for the best and forget about online sales, which eat up way too much of my time. It took me years to make that $3.85, lol. Not worth the time. It isn't even worth fighting Paypal over, I have proven to myself my stuff sells best in person. Thanks for the interest in helping as usual, @friendly-fenix. <3
ugh, @artopium has to set up a crypto payment option?!
Or maybe you could do it from a "free-website" where you display your art, and just tell people to email you about the paintings they want to buy.
Then have them send crypto to one of your online cryptowallets, you could put several addresses for different types of crypto, and once you received the payment, you send an email, and tell them the order is on it's way? Get your ass to the closest post-office and send the art (nicely wrapped)?!
Put the adress to the "free website" somewhere on the back of the art and make handmade business cards?
Anyway, sorry if I give to much advice, I can be slightly patronizing sometimes, sorry, I know it's really hard and I feel sorry for you being kind of a rolling stone, yet also a bit envious... =)
Cheers!

It is all good, I like your advice and chatting on here is a lot more engaging than on FB. I actually do have that "free" website and I have no idea if anyone has visited it besides my Mother and a Portland friend. I have blank cards now that I use just like you said, except I draw them right up then and there in front of the customer. My "free" website has too long of an address though for a card, so I just use the Artopium address.
Oh, I have a Jew in charge of mailing my work. Being the Executor of my Estate, he has all of my other original paintings in his storage space. He is armed and ready to mail them at any time. :D
Thanks for the chat!
Maybe invest in a cheap .com or something url and point it to the website with the long name? It's only a few dollars, if you don't want hosting and all that crap...
There is a website called https://www.joker.com
where you can buy a .com domain for like 10 bux per year " .top domains" are only like 3 bux for one year and 6.99 to renew, I would go for that one...
P.S.
Executor of the estate, isn't that someone who steps in. When you loose your house because you are dead?

Yes, I wrote my Last Will and Testament a year ago once I realized my health was degrading and I was still of sound mind and body. Good news is, my current lifestyle has reversed a lot of my previous issues. That is all we need, @friendly-fenix, walks, sunshine, hot springs, clean water to drink, company, purpose, fresh air, and order that is based upon natural cycles instead of synthetic ones. I think waking up with the Sun must have its health benefits and I feel fine with just 4-6 hours of sleep. Thanks for the convo and advice, my friend.
No problems glad to hear your alive and getting better man!
Sunshine does have it's magic, and the vitamin D, very very important we can only get it from the sun,
the vitamin d-pills are not the same thing... I would want to hobo for a while, just to get my mind right, a kind of pilgrimage maybe...

It teaches you lot, that is for sure.
