Looking for a way to sell your art?
This is a quick post to let other artists know about a site I discovered today. It’s http://www.artfido.com. Setting up an account and adding your art is free. When your art sells, you pay 10% to Fido Art. That’s an incredible deal. The only issue I have is shipping costs. I put in an estimate …
