Good advice, alpha7.
Another thing you should consider when building your site is to think about the overall goal. You said you want to make money with AdSense ads so that means that you are also going to need a good deal of informative content. But you don't just want to put up any content. Think about the type of person you want to target. Are you trying to target people who admire a certain type of painting? Are you giving any painting tips to people who want to learn how to paint? Is there any problem you can help people solve? Is there something specific about painting you want to teach?
The reason I'm asking these questions is the more focused your site is, the more you'll know about your visitor and you can write compelling content that will keep them coming back for more. So in addition to displaying your artwork, think about a specific audience you'd like to attract, then build content that will help, inform, entertain, etc. It's key that you define your audience first and that will help you decide what kind of content is best.
