I want to be apparent that I am not executing a industrial for UGallery. My intention is to show you that there are great folks out there who can aid you sell your artwork. Alex and his crew are but 1 of them.

Their business product feels various from lots of (most) of the other on-line galleries. They know art. They curate the do the job so there aren’t hundreds of random artists competing for eyeballs.

UGallery is paid out on commission, so they only make funds if art sells. They commit in promoting to support provide additional art. They are searching for interactions with their artists and nurture their artists to enable them sell improved online.

The aim of UGallery is on painting, but you must hear to their tale even if you are not a painter because you want to know that there are persons and providers out there who are on your aspect and accomplishing factors the right way.
