red_satin_dollI don't know why it hadn't occured to me until now that I could do this (being Buffy-centric in my focus here) but once again my S.O. has put up a number of her paintings on ebay.
She's always certain nothing will sell - and something always does, but it takes patience and lots of relisting. The furthest afield was a buyer in Austria. She's also positive she "can't paint" but she keeps plugging at it because she has to, because it's a part of her - and because she's stubborn. (I doubt any praise or feedback from me helps much in that regard.)

She has used the image on a couple of mugs, and it looks great.
