Here's how this works
Request your sample
11 × 14 or 8 × 10, Unframed. I approve within a day; it ships in 2–4 days.
Film 3 videos, each one different
Talking to camera, voiceover over your hands, POV. Then submit them in Trybe.
I review within 48 hours
I approve, ask for a small tweak, or tell you why not.
Approved videos run as our Meta ads
You earn 10% of every sale attributed to your ad.
Your sample
One set of Sarah's art prints. 11 × 14 or 8 × 10, unframed.
Sets of 2, 3, or 4. Retail $92–$856 unframed — or over $1,200 for a framed set, so your 10% on one sale can be significant, especially if a customer goes for our frames. Two are highlighted because they're our biggest sellers, if you can't decide.
* Photos show framed sets so you can see the art. Your sample arrives flat and unframed.
** 8 × 10 and 11 × 14 unframed are the two available variants for samples to start.
Angles
What makes Sarah's art different (and ways to say it).
You do you! But here's what I've got, each with a suggested script to get the juices flowing.
I can safely say Sarah's art is REALLY GOOD!
I'm biased, but it's honestly rare when I come across art online that's as good as hers. She just has such a natural, magical, whimsical way with color and form, and then it's all infused with depth, grace and dignity. So much range too, from the creatures to the abstract.
"These are hands down the best watercolor prints I've found online."
The art prints look EXACTLY like the originals.
The customer's home feels like a home with original artwork, for a fraction of the price. Show the print up close — that's the proof.
"I can't believe how much these look like original paintings! You simply cannot tell that they're prints."
Heavy 100% cotton paper, vibrant archival ink.
Doesn't fade in the sun. Very, very far from a poster or a print-yourself download from Etsy.
"This is heavy 100% cotton paper and you can feel it, thick and soft." (ASMR opportunity!)
Real art, painted by a real artist: Sarah Martinez.
Always cite her as the artist. There's an onslaught of AI home-decor sites with no human touch. When customers buy from us they support a real artist and her family. AI is great for lots — let's leave the arts to humans.
"These days you just don't know if you're looking at AI art or real art online, so I made SURE I was buying something that a human with a soul created from their heart. Sarah Martinez is the artist and these prints are so beautiful…"
Guests always comment.
Our customers tell us constantly that everyone who walks in asks about the prints.
"I've had these up for a while now and almost every guest who comes into my house comments on them and asks about them. They LOVE them!"
Family business for 15 years, 17,000+ orders, 3,300+ five-star reviews.
Artist-founded, woman-owned, husband running the show. Printed in the USA with locally sourced paper and frame materials.
"I'm trying to be conscious of what I'm buying online and who from, and this checks all my boxes. Artist-owned, husband and wife team, made in the USA, lots of amazing reviews, doesn't break the bank, and I know my dollar is going to another American family."
Framing done right, if they want it.
Real glass, real wood or metal, ready to hang, clean on the wall. No overpriced custom framing. Free US shipping over $75; printed to order in 2–4 days, usually at your door in 7–10.
"I think I'll get my next order framed by Snoogs & Wilde so I don't have to deal with custom framing's crazy prices or multiple trips to Michaels."
Sarah is also helping thousands of other artists.
She helps them recognize and overcome their self-imposed limitations on "being an artist" and just get painting without judgement!
"The artist behind these has 150k artists following her for a reason. Her talent goes beyond her painting and her message is amazing! You don't need to be academically trained to make beautiful art, you just need to start playing with color every day and your inner artist will emerge."
Where it lives
Pick the room or the person that's true for you.
Empty walls
"POV: you moved in three months ago (or three years ago!) and the walls are still bare."
Hold one up where it's going to go.
The wall you stopped seeing
"When's the last time you actually looked at the art on your walls?"
Most of us hung something years ago and stop appreciating it after a certain amount of time. It's run its course. New art makes you see the whole room again and also reflects your current identity, not you from 5 years ago.
The gift
"The gift my husband actually WANTED to hang up."
Trout or Fisherman's Den for the dad who fishes. Cardinals or Hummingbirds for Mom or Grandma.
Beach house / lake house / cabin
Coastal, Blue Crabs, Lobsters, Trout, Landscapes, Beach House. Show the place, then the prints.
Nature lover
Moths, Butterflies, Beetles, Dragonflies. Plants, field guides, a moth on the porch light.
Nursery / kids' room
Butterflies, Hummingbirds, Cardinals. Soft and real, not cartoonish. Art they won't outgrow.
What to say about price: 20% off orders over $150, 25% off over $250, framed sets 25% off — all automatic. Don't quote any other discount.
Some ideas on how to film it
Here's what has worked for us so far. Always open to new angles!
Seated, facing camera, prints in your lap
Flipping through the set and talking.
Stacked or fanned on a table
Shoot from above, stacking one print on top of the other. Voiceover.
The close-up
Within a few inches. Paper texture and watercolor edges.
Framing is optional
If you frame one and it looks good, show it. But framed-on-the-wall from across the room can sometimes look flat on a phone — don't make it the whole video.
Showing your face often performs best. Voiceover while scrolling through prints on a table is also good.
A few examples
Rules
Some do's and don'ts.
- Vertical 9:16, 15–45 seconds. Phone footage fine, bright natural light, your own voice, hook as text on screen.
- No copyrighted music. Free audio or none.
- Submit 3 videos once you get your sample. Change the hook, the angle, or the style each time (talking to camera, voiceover over your hands, POV). Three of the same video doesn't count.
- Call them art prints of Sarah's watercolor paintings.
- Don't call the art prints "paintings." We need to be clear that they're art prints of the original paintings, not the original paintings themselves.
- Don't film them bent or under harsh overhead light. No filters or heavy smoothing.
- Don't promise delivery times or sales that aren't in here. "Fast shipping" is fine if that was your experience, but it's not 2-day shipping. Every print is made to order, so they take 2–4 days to print and 3–5 days to ship.
That's it
