I have been researching the benefits of Art Competitions and after talking to a few friends, many of them were contacted by Galleries after publishing their work online; this is the reason why I am posting this blog; in order to mention a few good Art Websites and hopefully find out about new/good ones.
I have also included galleries that any artist should try to get into; being part of the Summer Exhibition in the Royal Academy of Arts is a honour.
This is a new online gallery for emerging artists to share their work to the wider, international community and gain recognition by promoting their art online.
Entry is free and open to people all over the world.
