Question
How would you market the following photo-art ?  http://tinyurl.com/ru9p

Answer
Hello Ed,

Your creations are referred to as "digiart"........since I take it you do orginal photography and then digitize the image to create a more "unique" art work.

Don't want to throw water on your enthusiasm.......but most galleries shy away from this type of art [at least in the present....but I think the future is bright for this type of artistic expression].  My suggestion is to use all available internet means to market your work......perhaps eBay and other auction type of websites as a start. Also check galleryguide.com and see the list of galleries they provide...and send emails to them with a link to your website.

You could also contact the local arts council and/or museum in your area and submit your work for upcoming shows.

I do wish you well, as I like this type of work myself.
