The continuous one line art is a type of art created without lifting the pen from the paper. Traditionally, the artists use a single line to show the vision. It represents simplicity and minimalism. A form of art that shows you do not need extreme colors and details to make an artistic masterpiece.
Because of its simplicity, many people tend to overlook this art style. But from my research, I have discovered that there is a vibrant demand for this type of art in different formats. You can easily create this art style with ai image generators and sell online or offline.
My goal in this article is to help you understand the one line art niche and how you can properly position yourself to make good money from it.
Please note that the continuous one line art is different from the line art style. Continous line art only has one line and it is simple, minimalistic art. On the other end, line art can be complicated and have multiple lines.
Selling ai one line art?
This art style mostly attracts people who subscribe to minimalism. However, one line art can also be found in luxury commercial places like hotels, and restaurants.
You can sell your AI-generated one line art as digital art prints: where the buyer downloads a PNG file and makes their own prints. If you choose to sell digital art print files, you can use marketplaces like Etsy, eBay, or CreativeFabrica to sell your designs. However, I would advise against using pod marketplaces like Redbubble or Zazzle as I noticed that one line art is not popular on these websites.
Another option is to convert your ai images to SVG format and sell design bundles on any website that allows you to sell digital files.
It can also be sold as a print-on-demand framed poster or canvas wall art. While you can sell unframed wall art, The frame separates the art from the background which gives it a better look. Most pod suppliers have framed canvases and posters, so you can choose any supplier and connect to the marketplace of your choice.
Lastly, you can sell one line art images in PNG or JPEG format on stock image websites that allow ai generated artwork.
Prompts for creating ai continuous line art
These images are very easy to create with any good ai art generator. All you have to do is add “one line” or “continuous line” to your prompt. For example:
Midjourney V6 prompt: soft feminine woman face, minimalist line art, black and white, white background --style raw
Midjourney V6 prompt: White background, minimalism, doodle, in the style of minimalist linework, Man with glasses profile avatar, Line drawing, black and white illustration, simple,
The only thing you have to keep in mind is that the lines must not break at any point. It is a continuous one line image, so the artwork should start and end with a single line. Also, you should remember that the line color is black and the background is white.
Make the most money
If you already have a wall art, digital print, or SVG bundle shop, you can add one line art designs to your shop. But I would not advise that you try to create a brand in this niche. One line art is very easy to create even without ai, so it can be easily copied. I also noticed that most of the best sellers in this niche are abstract one line art. This means that there is not much you can do to differentiate your brand so your shop can stand out. You can try incorporating humor, nature, or animal portraiture into your art to make it more unique.
In the end, it is all up to you to do your own research to further understand the niche and plan your sales strategy. If you think you can create captivating continuous line artwork that resonates with people, then go ahead and give it a try.
