    2. Please respond to all correspondence in a timely manner. Sellers who fail to respond may have their listings removed.
    3. Do your best to provide all of requested information when submitting a new listing.
    4. Please provide at least 5 high quality photos for your listing. Photos should be taken with a modern mobile phone or camera capable of taking high resolution photos. We strongly suggest taking your photos outside in natural light. Complete and accurate listings with multiple high quality photos will be approved immediately by our listing staff. View example photos.
    5. Complete your listing submission in a timely manner once you've started the process - don't drag it out for weeks. This lets us know you're serious about making a sale!

      Our business model

      By listing with Art Brokerage, you agree to list exclusively with our site for a period of 120 days. You reserve the right to sell your art privately during this time period. After 120 days, you may list your art elsewhere and maintain your listing here with the understanding we retain the right to sell your art as long as it's listed. For the best results, we recommend listing your art exclusively with Art Brokerage until it is sold. We discourage posting your listings on other sites while listing your art with us, as this only causes confusion for potential buyers. You may remove your listing from our site with no notice at any time. Please do not list unless you intend to sell, and make sure to let us know if you sell your art or list it elsewhere!

      We offer a variety of payment options for our sellers.
