How it works

  1. 1

    Express interest

    Tell us about yourself and share a few examples of your work.

  2. 2

    Get to know each other

    We talk through your practice, your available pieces and how you would like to be presented.

  3. 3

    Build your profile

    Your story, photographs and artwork details are prepared and checked with you before anything is published.

  4. 4

    Reach collectors

    Your work is listed alongside other artists, and enquiries and sales are handled through the marketplace.

What you may need to share

  • Your name, country and preferred contact details
  • A short biography and, if you like, an artist statement
  • The art forms and materials you work with
  • Photographs of available works, with titles where you have them
  • Dimensions, materials and your asking price for each piece

Photographing your work

  • Natural, even light, no heavy filters
  • The whole piece in frame, plus close ups of detail
  • A plain background where possible
  • A portrait or studio photograph, if you are comfortable sharing one

Images remain yours. They are used only to present your work.
