Question
I am too diversified it seems for many galleries and need "desperately" an agent or represenatative.
  Any ideas in the San Antonio area?

Answer
Hello....and thanks for your inquiry.

I don't have any contacts in San Antonio.....but am puzzled about your comment regarding galleries finding you too diverse......which I assume means that your style is multifaceted.....and that your art work does not have a particular "signature"......or when one views your work....the style is so diverse that the works could have been done by many artists?  Whatever......an agent won't be in any better position than you are.....if galleries don't like your work.  Most galleries are "for-profit"....so if the work doesn't have commercial viability....then you won't be accepted.  Try an art association in your area...talk to other artists in San Antonio.....check galleries and see who is being shown....and talk with one of those artists.  Don't give up hope.....also try an internet web site for yourself....a local college might have a program which helps people like yourself to gain access to the net vis a vis a web page.  

good luck.
