im not an artist/design student so my drawings are simple but i believe they are nice enough to be accepted by everyone. can you guys suggest any way to earn money out of this hobby? maybe like stickers or tshirt print etc etc?http://brenlez.deviantart.com

both of those are good ideas...hmm. you seem to have a lot of different types of regular things. baby, invader, skeleton.this would certainly work well with stickers or tshirts, and they're certainly good enough (simple is better for stickers and Tshirts).i think you should try to find a way to take and fill requests.if you can do it, you'll be able to get better and get popular at the same time.then you might be able to sell some.the things you have right now, though, seem too bland for me. you have characters, but they're not doing anything. and because they're not doing anything, they're not being anything except cute characters. they don't have an identity.and without an identity, the most you'll be able to sell is a compilation book (or a few t-shirts).the global warming ones are the current exception. they're doing something, and have an identity (they're observing and reacting to global warming).have baby vampire suck on a bottle of blood, and baby frankenstein rise to life out of a cradle, or something along those lines. some simple action for all of the characters you can think of.maybe even make a webcomic out of it. not with panels, just a single illustration as each comic.then you'll be able to sell the things you have now as t-shirts or stickers (or plastic toys, but those are harder)

Deviant art is one way. I just started an account there myself. Another well known site is metacafe.com. Try them out. I also came across a ebook/course that has really helped me sell my art recently. It's the best course for the money I have seen, getpaidtodraw.infoBelieve me. You can make money from this and you don't have to be a great artist. What it takes more in the knowledge of how to do the business and also just plain persistance. Keep working at it and you will be successful. That guy who wrote the book started back in 2003, and has built up his income to where he is making close to a million a year. That's not bad and he isn't a great artist at all.
