how do I get my artwork out there for people to see and be interested in buying some?

Answer 1

Find a gallery that is willing to take some of it on consignment. If it sells, they get a percentage.

Answer 2

Okay, one thing first off - No gallery, and rarely ANY agent will represent you right off the bat. No offfense to the other answers. I have been selling my art for 3 yrs now, and I'm JUST getting noticed after finally I have built somewhat of a name of myself. It's like any other career, you have to prove yourself to others before they will accept you.
What you need to do FIRST is. Take a look at your paintings, what style do you have ? more then one ? are you versatile with your subjects ?
Have a presentation of your work, a portfolio, Biography, statements. Your words will sell your art more then JUST looking at your art. The majority of regular people who don't know ALOT about art don't understand what you are trying to express through your paintings, as experienced art collects may. So you have to have a reason for each painting. Why did you create this piece, what was your inspiration ? How do you feel on the painting. Never tell the people WHAT your painting is, let them decided what it means to them, you can tell them how you feel about it, but dont' tell them HOW to feel about it.
-Have good photographs of your work
-sign it with a clean signature( something ppl can read)
-presentable portfolio
-Sell yourself as a artist.
Then goto local cafe's, restaraunts, shops.... Enter ANY contests that include paintings to be judged. The more awards you have the more you will be recognized. Then you can move on to having a agent and gallery offers.
But for right now, you're a self representing artist.
Also try Ebay.com .... but on there - market your page WELL. don't make it look cheap.
And one more thing, never under sell your art.

The Saatchi Gallery in London has launched a new virtual gallery called STUART (student artists). Go to

http://www.saatchi-gallery.co.uk/yourgallery/

There is a link to STUART on the left hand side bar. Good luck!

Answer 4

ok.
here are a couple FREE websites you can join and post work on. As I have no idea WHAT your "work" actually is, I'll let you decide which is right for you. Both have a paid option with more bells and whistles too, if you really want to "go pro"
www.deviantart.com (anything from anime to photography to ceramics)
www.conceptart.org (illustration/concept works)
www.portfolios.com ( an online portfolio website)

Answer 5

http://www.artwanted.com

You can have a portfolio, and sell your work there.

GOOD LUCK!!♥
