Alternative Venues for Selling Artwork

There is a charge for selling your art in an auction, but there is also a fee for selling in a gallery. Check out the fees before listing and price your work accordingly. You will also need to price up delivery of your work as the buyer will require delivery, at separate cost, at the time of winning the auction. You can either sell your work at a set price or allow buyers to bid on it. Bidding methods are more effective if your work is well known before listing.

Craft Fairs

You can often find lists of upcoming craft fairs in craft magazines, newspapers, posters and online websites dedicated to listing craft fairs in various areas of the country. A quick search will reveal many different events.

Markets

If your work sells well at the market you may want to consider taking a permanent stall. It may not be as glamorous as an art gallery, but if your work is selling well it may be a great alternative – not to mention you get to keep all the profit, minus the cost of your stall, instead of handing over huge percentages to gallery owners.
