Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
It can be hard especially if you work with materials that are hard to find organic/eco friendly supplies!. I find it nearly impossible but try to do my best!. I think its more important in working on offsetting my carbon footprint on the earth in general, than to focus on making EVERYTHING I do ecofriendly!. In many ways we just can't!. But heres a good site on that: http://www!.carbonfootprint!.com

But for some ideas on improving your ecofriendliness as an artist:

1!. Consider organic or recycled packing materials for shipping and packing your work!.

2!. If you use a printer, be sure to save your cartridges to send to the nearest post office or shop that recycles cartridges!. I use a ziplock to put them in until it piles up to take to recycle!.

3!. Consider doing digital invoices for buyers instead of paper flyers!. In some ways this is nice, and in some ways not as fun as the paper deal, right!? ;-/

4!. Be sure to keep organized and only use as much supplies as you really need!. Recycle canvases (if you use those) by repainting over if needed, or the like!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
