Moving from digital to traditional art

An ideal compromise for many artists today is to seek representation by an established and curated online gallery. By comparison to the open market sites already discussed, a gallery offers artists a sales team who work to convert eyeballs into sales, and offers buyers the comfort of curatorial support. Many gallery owners claim to be having great success selling online. Two such well known galleries are UGallery.com, and Art.com, each of which cater to very different segments of the Fine Art market.

UGallery.com was a pioneer in the "real art gallery, just online" arena that began ten years ago. While they focus on the mid-tier original art market of paintings and hand made prints, they now offer digital giclée prints as well. This is an ideal medium for artists producing computer-based work.
