Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

I would start with places like coffee houses or boutique type places and ask them if you can display your work there. After you have done so and especially if you sell a piece or two...if that is a goal.Then I would go to local galleries and tell them where you have displayed your work and the successes of those displays. You don't have to sell much but a gallery likes to have pieces that sell and interesting facts they can put on a bio.Your successes and your youth will be part of the things that would be eye catching in a bio.. Good luck to you. P.S another interesting place that likes to display local work is hospitals...Really..especially in their chemotherapy rooms because people sit in those rooms so long. And if your work is colorful and upbeat them love having them up for a while. They also sell well there. People like to take the beauty home.
