Art 101 Gallery in Wooster/Medina Ohio?

Post by Cheryl »

I was just contacted by this gallery. After checking out their web site, they appear to have 1 glass artist who does not have a web site. Has anyone dealt with or heard of these folks? They sound a little scammy to me...
thanks!

"How are you my friend?" We met a long time ago, don't you remember?

"How are you, my friend?" Not bad, got projects going, some teaching. Lost my last Bernese in December but the rest of the family's fine.

Hmmm... I do shows in Ohio and I know some of these artists. The ones I know are impeccable in their work, I'm going to find out what they think of it & I'll post back

I took a closer look at their application form and found this deal breaker:

Membership Pricing: Commission Schedule:

Individual: $360 thru December 10, 2011 75% net to artist
($480 after January 1, 2012) 25% net to gallery
*No annual renewal fee for preferred members *Above % for preferred members

(preferred members are our professional artists in compliance with our gallery criteria)



I couldn't find any explanation of what separates the "preferred" members from the rest of the marks, er, members.
