Coaching with A.C.T.'s Art Business Mentor, Margaret Danielak
on Representing Yourself and Your Work
"Are you spending a fortune to market your art? Do you believe that art buyers only buy art from traditional art galleries? Are you depressed because you cannot get into a gallery or have had a bad experience with one? You may be missing out on opportunities.
"By selling your work in alternative venues, you reach a whole new audience for your work than if you are only represented by a traditional gallery. Art buyers are everywhere...they are not just the people who happen to walk into an art gallery. Moreover, many people find traditional art galleries either too intimidating and/or 'snooty,' and appreciate acquiring artwork directly from the artist. It adds something special - some excitement- to the story they tell other people about the work they've acquired. They met the artist!
"Furthermore, art galleries are interested in artists who have business sense and know how to market and sell their fine art.”
