The fourth in our series on the creative tapestry of creators and curators using LettsArt focusses on an "unseen" group. For many artists, creativity is not a career, it’s a calling. But life gets busy. Full-time jobs, family, and everyday responsibilities often leave little space for consistent artistic practice. Yet, among this creative crowd is a growing number of talented individuals we call Part-Time Hobbyists - people who pursue art with heart, on the side.
They may not rely on art for their livelihood, but their commitment to creativity is no less real. Whether it's a painting completed after work, a photograph captured on a weekend hike, or a pottery piece glazed on a Sunday afternoon, their art reflects joy, self-expression, and curiosity.
At LettsArt, we’re proud to support Part-Time Hobbyists in turning personal passions into something more visible and, when they choose, more profitable.
The Part-Time Hobbyist is often self-taught or informally trained, exploring art not for fame or income, but for fulfilment. They create when inspiration strikes - on evenings, weekends, or holidays. Their studio might be the kitchen table or a garden shed, and their audience often starts with friends and family.
But with the rise of digital tools and platforms, many hobbyists are looking for an easy, low-pressure way to share their work with a wider audience without jumping through commercial hoops or losing creative control.
LettsArt gives Part-Time Hobbyists the tools to elevate their art practice without making it feel like a job. Here’s how:
Creating a professional online gallery takes minutes. LettsArt handles the design, hosting, and e-commerce functionality, so hobbyists can focus on their creativity not tech troubleshooting.
We offer free and low-cost subscription options that suit creators who don’t produce work at volume. There’s no pressure to sell, just the option to do so if and when you're ready.
LettsArt allows artists to showcase their journey, not just finished pieces. Upload sketches, work-in-progress shots, or inspirations. Whatever brings your creative world to life.
If a piece resonates with someone, selling is just a click away. With integrated payment tools, you can accept commissions or sell originals and prints with ease.
LettsArt fosters a welcoming, supportive environment. Part-Time Hobbyists are embraced as vital voices in the creative ecosystem, not sidelined for not being “full-time.”
You don’t need to go all-in to be all-art. For the Part-Time Hobbyist, LettsArt offers the freedom to share when you’re ready, sell when you want, and grow at your own pace. Your art deserves to be seen, whether you make one piece a year or one every week.
