Questions
We want you to be fully informed about this process.
01
What about getting paid?
When submitting your artwork, you’ll provide an estimated market value based on factors such as materials, time invested, creative effort, and more. We will carefully evaluate your suggested value, working with you to establish a fair price for your piece.
​
Our mission is to create a platform where artists receive the recognition and fair compensation they deserve. We approach this process with transparency and integrity, ensuring you are actively involved in determining the value of your work.
​
It’s important to note that while submitting your work is free, we operate on a consignment model. This means we will take a percentage of the final sale price when your artwork is sold. This percentage helps us cover the costs of promoting, listing, and securely storing your piece while ensuring you retain the majority of the proceeds.
​
Once your artwork is sold, you will be notified immediately via email. Payment will be processed within five business days of the sale. To facilitate this, you’ll complete a banking form sent to you during the onboarding process.
​
By partnering with us, you can trust that your work is valued, supported, and presented to an audience eager to discover and invest in unique, high-quality art.
02
How do I know my artwork is being taken care of?
We are committed to ensuring your artwork is handled with the utmost care and keeping you informed throughout the entire process. You’ll receive notifications at every stage, much like tracking an online package. From its arrival at our facility to being listed on our website and eventually sold, you’ll always know your artwork's status and location.
​
When your application is accepted, you’ll receive an email with all the next steps. This includes detailed packing instructions, a consignment agreement, a banking form for payment, and, if necessary, an additional info request document. Before sending your piece, we encourage you to take close-up photos to document its condition. Once your artwork arrives, our team will immediately inspect it for any damage and confirm its safe arrival with you.
After receiving your artwork, we will:
​
-
Professionally photograph, weigh, and measure it for its listing.
-
Carefully repackage it in secure storage to protect it until it is sold.
-
Handle it with care during any promotional events or viewings.
​
When your artwork sells, we will notify you right away. Your piece will be packaged with the utmost attention to detail, accompanied by its official certificate of authenticity, and shipped to its new owner. You’ll receive a final update when it has successfully reached its destination.
