This wall art has earned over 82,673 on Etsy.
And in this video, I'm going to show you how you can copy this style of wall art in Canva, so
that you can create your own top selling product too. What I'll be doing is first showing you
different examples of popular styles of wall art on Etsy, and as you'll seem combined,
the products I'll show you have made over $350,000. And then next, I'll hop into Canva and
I'll show you how anyone including you can create wall art in the same styles in less than two
minutes. So then, let's get started! Alrighty, top selling style #1: The Cut Out. Okay so this
here is an example of a cut out wall art piece which I actually showcased in my latest video on
this channel. It's very popular with customers. Alura, the Etsy research app estimates it's
made $120,868 Australian dollars, which, when converted into US dollars, it is roughly
$82,673! So the popular Cut Out style as you can see is very simple. It's just when you take a
photo or an image of a subject, such as a cactus plant in this example, and you cut it out and then
you place it onto a plain background. As I said, it's simple but it's highly effective and it can
be utilized in many different niches. For example, take the Nursery niche. The Cut Out style is very
popular with customers looking for art for their baby's bedrooms. Take for example this print on
demand Boho Flower Nursery Poster here. It is estimated to have made over $27,000. And take
these Nursery Cut Out animal posters which are being sold as a set. They are estimated to have
made over a hundred and ten thousand Australian dollars which of course, when you convert into
US dollars is over $75,000. So for this Canva design challenge, I will be creating my own
Cut Out poster using the photos that have been included in the Canva app and I'll be theming
it around the niche of New Zealand because, yes, even though there are lots of people that
hear my accent and go: "Ah, she must be from Australia!" My accent isn't actually an Australian
accent, it's a New Zealand accent because, well, I'm from New Zealand. So to get started I came
over to Pixabay and I did a search for a free photo of a Kea, which is a native bird to New
Zealand. And by the way, if you want to learn how you could use Pixabay to find free photos to turn
into products to sell, you should be sure to watch my latest video which discusses how to do that.
But yes, I went ahead found my photo on Pixabay, downloaded it and then uploaded it to Canva.
Then I selected the image and clicked to edit it, and I use the crop tool to select the
section of the Kea that I wanted to showcase, and then I clicked on the background remover tool
and Canva's AI technology removed the background around the Kia and made it transparent. And then
I went and I clicked on the auto adjust feature which just balanced out the colors and the
lighting of the photo. And then I went and I clicked on the white background, and that opened
up a color box in the top menu. I clicked on that and that opened up the Color Picker where I could
choose any color that I wanted for the background, and I chose black. And then I just dragged the
photo at the corners to the size that I wanted it, and I positioned it on my poster. And look,
in just two minutes I completed the challenge yay! And by the way, if you're interested in
learning how I and others earn passive income every day by taking free pictures that we find
in Canva and then turning them into print on demand products like posters and wall art prints
to sell for a profit, then you should be sure to download my free ebook which shows you how to do
this step-by-step. I'll have a link to it in the video description below, click on that to get a
free copy emailed to you. But for now, back to the video. And let's move on to top selling style
number #2: The Aesthetic Collection. So this here is an example of an Aesthetic Collection. It
is a series of print on demand prints of photos taken from the James Webb Telescope, and it is
popular: estimated to have made over $29,000. So what makes something an Aesthetic Collection?
Well as you can see, it's when you have multiple different prints that are in the same look and
style such as these ones here. Now, obviously, as these were all photos taken from space from
the same telescope, it is no surprise that they all have a fairly similar look. But that's not
the only way to make an Aesthetic Collection. For example, take this Aesthetic Collection which
I showcased in my previous video on this channel. it is estimated to have made over $59,000 which is
pretty cool. Now, what's interesting is that like the James Webb collection that I showed you just
before, this collection here also features free images which anyone can download online and then
legally resell. However, the stock photos that were used for this Aesthetic Collection here used
to look very different. For example this is one of the original stock images used and this is another
of the stock images that we used. So as you can see, if you want to create an Aesthetic Collection
you've got two different choices. You can go this route here where you find images that are already
in a similar same style, or you can go this route here where you take images and then you edit them
to be in the style and aesthetic that you want. For my Canva challenge, I'll be doing the latter,
themed around New Zealand's different mountains and landscapes. And as you'll see, Canva's photo
options will greatly speed up the editing process for me. So of course to get started I came over
to Pixabay, the free photo library, and I found 3 photos that I wanted to use that had a CC0 license
again. If you want to learn more about that be sure to watch my latest video on it. Then I came
into Canva and I uploaded them into separate pages. Then I clicked on a photo, and selected
to edit it, and then I opened up the filters on here. You can find a range of different filters
which give a photo a very different aesthetic. For example, if you chose the Hazel aesthetic it
gives it a vintage look. For these posters though, I didn't want a vintage look. Instead, I wanted
to go for more of that vibrant surreal travel aesthetic that you see on TikTok, so I selected
Capri and then I just went and I applied that filter to the other two posters. Now, this was
looking good, but I thought it would be cool if the smoke was more visible from Mount Tongariro
which, by the way, is the volcano that was used during Lord of the Rings as Mount Doom. So I
clicked to edit the photo and I selected adjust, and I increased the white. And look: Within
minutes I I'd completed our challenge. Nice! So now, let's move on to top selling wall art
style #3: Artistic Black & White Prints. Okay, so this here is an example of a popular print on
demand Artistic Black & White Art Print which I actually showcased in my most recent video on this
channel. it's estimated that this print on demand prints have made over $57,000! And this here is an
example of a printable digital wall art artistic black & white set. It is estimated to have made
over $33,000 Australian dollars, which is very cool. Artistic Black & White prints, while very
simple in theory, do actually require a bit more advanced tweaking within Canva to look good, so I
will show you how to do that shortly. But first: a quick word from today's sponsor: Me! Yes, there
are so many shady sponsors on YouTube that I would rather just sponsor my own videos instead. So I'm
sponsoring it today to let you know that if you are interested in creating your own store on Etsy
and selling products on there too like these, you should be sure to check out my ecommerce course,
The Ecomm Clubhouse, which shows you how to create print on demand products and then sell them on
Etsy, step-by-step. If you are interested in seeing if my course is right for you, I'll have a
link to it in the video description. But, anyway, back to the video. So, let's hop on over to Canva
and this time in Canva I'm going to be making a poster themed around the classic New Zealand
icon the Sheep. Yes, here in New Zealand we have a population of roughly 5 million people and 25
million sheep. That is one of the highest ratios of sheep per person in the world! So, of course,
I started off by coming to Pixabay, the free photo library online and I found a photo that had a CC0
license. And I of course uploaded it to Canva then I clicked on the photo and selected filters, and
scrolled down to mono filters. Canva has a big range of black and white filters that give a photo
very different looks. For this one I selected the ink filter. Now for this poster, I had a goal
I wanted the background to be as plain as possible and I wanted the Sheep to appear as white and
fluffy as possible, while maintaining their detail. So to achieve this, I had to do a little
bit of advanced editing within Canva. So to do that I clicked the photo and I selected to edit it
and I came to adjust, then I increased the black, and I increased the white and I also increased the
shadow. And look: it's done! Challenge complete, yay. So then, did my video inspire you? If so,
