Art Fairs?




I am looking to compensate for the recent economic slump in my portrait business. Some of the artists that I spoke to recently at a local art fair assured me that they are able to generate enough money to support their families by doing these fairs and not selling through galleries.


They say that giclees and smaller original works sell well. Figuratives, landscapes and still lifes appeared to be selling.

Has anyone had any experience with art fairs? I am tempted to try this venue.
