You can submit artworks directly to a gallery through their Artist Portal. The gallery can then review your submission and, once approved, your artworks will be transferred to the gallery's inventory.

Troubleshooting Guide

When I click the link in the email I received it says "Your access link has expired. Please enter your email below to continue."

Please check that you have clicked the link in the most recent email for the Artist Portal. This message appears when a more recent link has been generated.

To generate a new access link, input your email address into the Artist Portal login screen and click Continue. You will then get a green success message at the top of the page that a new access code has been emailed to you.

In your email inbox there might be a few access codes in the same email thread, please only click the most recent email by looking at the timestamp of when it was sent:

I can't progress past the Contact Details page.

Ensure that you have agreed to the gallery's terms & conditions by checking the box at the bottom of the sign-up screen.

I am unable to upload my artwork.

Ensure that you have paid the submission fee before submitting your artwork. Also ensure that your artwork format is accepted.

I tried logging back into the portal, but never received an email confirmation code.

Check your spam folder. If the email still isn't there, it means you entered the wrong email address when you signed up in the portal. If this is the case - contact the gallery administrators and they can change your email address to the correct one.
