Artist Studio: Step-By-Step Instructions

Before you begin

In order to open an account, you need to have a computer image of one artwork, and a personal photograph of yourself. It is a good idea to create your texts such as your short bio (up to 50 words), your biographical statement and artwork description(s) in the form of text files in your computer. This will save you time when you fill out our online forms.

After you have opened an account, you will be able to change or replace the images and texts in your account at any time.

The images must be in GIF or JPEG format, with widths between 1000 and 2000 pixels, and sizes up to 3 MB.
