State tax filing

You can deduct the expenses paid that are usual and customary for your business. If you have no documentation like a receipt those expenses might be disallowed if audited. If you paid with your own art work you can only claim the cost of your supplies and not your labor. If a valued art work by someone else you would have to have it appraised to establish its value. In addition you are bartering which has its own tax implications.
