On-line Art Galleries can assist in the career and business development of an Artist

December 12th, 2009

It is often difficult for an artist to find a gallery prepared to take their work.   Even if they do find an art gallery, the art gallery may restrict the number of art works hung and space or time permitted for an exhibition.   But the main problem for most newer artists is the question of being unknown.   Unless an artist is already known it is almost impossible to find a gallery willing to handle their work.   But how to become known and how to earn some income in the meantime? Even when an art gallery is located and terms agreed there is the question of commission and sales tax which can mean that the gallery and the picture framer earn more than the artist. The commercial aspect of a working life in art is a difficult one to manage.   It is rare that an artist makes a reasonable living from art without having to supplement with other work such as teaching.   An artist can also attempt to raise their profile by entering competitions and with luck and talent gain prize money also. Artists are turning to the internet to increase their audience exposure and assist in making sales of their work. Many on-line art galleries however have no selection criteria for work submitted and further they do not permit dedicated space for each artist.   The end result is that an artist’s work does not show in any cohesive manner, unless the user already knows the name of the artist and searches for their name.
