So how do I benefit from being an Artist on Art Gratis?
We can think of at least seven reasons:
1. You are offering free access to a selection of your images in return for a free portfolio [gallery] on Art Gratis. Yes, that benefits us, but it benefits you too!
We offer our own images [in the thousands] for free, because we've seen that 'Free' is key, for traffic generation, engagement and loyalty.
But our main focus is on curation. We're less interested in stock images and more interested in original, creative, artistic ones.
We want to create a community of artists, whereby users, including buyers, collectors, agencies & fellow creatives, can access more high quality curated content and faster, giving them greater choice.

Your niche, style, vibe, originality, magnificence etc. may appeal to them and they can contact you directly and commission or hire you, buy your work. or even become collectors of it - We're artists too and we get it, there's no easy path, but we know that putting your work out there is absolutely essential for things to happen.
While you're waiting on that seemingly elusive break, at very least you'll have your own pretty cool, if we say so ourselves, professional portfolio - your images are not randomly scattered among thousands of others. Your portfolio will load fast and requires no fees. And, a discerning audience will see it! - Art Gratis is a new global platform, with a current average of over 80,000 views per month and growing.
