• Am I ready to sell my art at an art gallery?
• Do I have a cohesive body of art ready to display at an art gallery?
• Is my art sellable?

• Do I have the time and energy to supply the demand for an art gallery?
• Do I have a blog or a website that showcases and promotes my art as a portfolio?
• Do I have a professional-looking portfolio to offer to an art gallery?
