Question:

How do I find an agent to market my art?

I am an artist from South Africa that would like to market my art in the right way and to the right client. Searching for an agent has proved futile, I am increasingly fearful that they don't exist! Has anyone ever seen one alive? Is this the best way to go? Please help. Will mention you in my art award acceptance speech!


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

check out ebay...they have a huge number of self representing artists...i bought some great pen and ink and line drawings ...prices vary but its a great way to gain confidence and get your work out...after you are gaining acceptance check with gallery owners, take copies of what you've sold and a few pieces you would like to place for sale...galleries have different styles,so shop till you find work in your mil lieu already displayed.... good luck
