No I'm not in Italy. I'm in the American Southwest.
I think you're back east as I recall. I'll give you a couple of gallery tips most artists don't know.
Sometimes, timing is everything! There was one time we found ourselves looking for 3 new painters in one week! Stuff happens like that. We took in one painter who was new, and very good, when he sent pictures that week. Good timing! Also a really good time to get a gallery is if one is changing hands.
Galleries will take a good part of your profit. 60/40 or some 50/50. Of course, once you get established, whats a few thousand? Good money in fineart.
Have you checked out the contemporary galleries in your area? Would your work fit with any of them? It's also important to keep with-in the same theme. Landscapes and cities are good together. Most galleries avoid portraits. People don't like people they don't know hanging on their walls. Make sure there is a steady flow to your work. Unfortunatley, one painting can be a turn off. I worked with one gallery owner who would turn down a painter if there was one painting she didn't like in the lot.
Don't spread yourself too thin. Focus on what you paint best. A good artist is known for his subject, not many topics. Just a couple different themes.
Make sure you have a large body of your best work. At least 5 or 6 good paintings. being a good fit is very important. Make sure your work looks good with what is already there. This means color too. Galleries don't like trying to hang an artist who clashes with their other artists. Send the gallery photos of your work, 4x6. Hands on is much better than the internet. But send your web-site too. Include your bio and photo. Don't ask for them to be returned.
You would be surprised how many artist will say that their work will look good in a certain gallery, then when you see it, it has nothing to do with the type of art already there. If you find a gallery where you know your work will look good, walk in and ask if you can show them your paintings. Be brave!!
It's all really very simple. If the gallery likes your work, you'll get in. Go to shows for other artist and talk with the workers! People on the gallery floor have a lot of power too.
Once you're established the girls will be everywhere!
I like your style and colors. I could see you growing as an artist!
