As a new artist in the area, I would so appreciate the help and insights of other artists (local or not) who could offer suggestions as to how to market my work.
I'm new to the industry and looking for ideas as to the most economical and smart ways to have your work seen by potential buyers and art appreciaters and local media.

Visit and join Art Center Sarasota. There you can exhibit and sell at member fees.

I'm also new to the area, I moved to my sister's house near Ocala in the spring. I grew up in Baltimore, and was living in the part of West Virginia that's near Washington DC for several years before coming here. I've been visiting the museums around here, and am just getting started with making contact with other artists.

I am also new to the area...moved from Charleston, SC. I was involved with the Art Guilds there and was able to show in a gallery there. Feel like a "fish out of water" right now. Looking forward to joining the Art Centers of Sarasota and Manatee, but I am a little overwhelmed by all the art options in the area....from Anna Marie down to Venice! Where to begin??? I figure things will eventually fall into place, just keep trying to visit as many art exhibits and shows as possble.

Thank you Brenda. Isn't Alchemy located at St. Armand's Circle? I would love to have your input on marketing my art. What is the going commission charged around this area? I appreciate your response! Check out my website www.barbarajdoucette.com and feel free to email me at doucettedesign@yahoo.com. I will look forward to any "insights" you can offer! Hey, maybe we can "do lunch" sometime! :-) Barbara

Hi Barbara - no, Alchemy is in the Village of the Arts - i may have mentioned that i work at a boutique on St. Armand's some evenings - maybe that's the confusion. People charge different commissions and you have to meet with people individually to see if they are interested in your work. Come visit the Village sometime and we can chat. Alchemy is open on Fridays and Saturdays -- please see my website for details. www.artandalchemy2.com -- peace...Brenda
