All VWS Members are entitled to a single page member gallery. A Member’s Gallery Page is meant to be a brief introduction of the Member artist and their work. It is also designed to make it easy for the public to contact the artist.

Member Artist Page Information

To be as effective as possible, the following information will be included on each Member Gallery page: artist name, contact information, physical address (if desired and a physical gallery location is available for the public to visit), a short bio/artists statement - limited to 100 words.

Images

The gallery can include images of up to 5 paintings. The images MUST be 2000 pixels wide on the longest dimension at 72dpi in jpg format (a photo of your work taken on a smartphone will work). Click the button at right for more information on creating high quality digital images.
