SALES:
Artwork in the show will be for sale at the price chosen by the artist. This price does not include shipping and handling costs. The artist will handle the sale of their artwork and shipping thereof. Any interested purchaser will contact the artist directly regarding purchase of artist's work. 100% of the sale of work will go to the artist; no commission to MSA. If the artist does NOT wish their entry to be for sale, they should show a $0 price and select “not for sale” for that piece.
The artist's email contact information will be posted along with their artwork image on the Online Gallery show so that the artist can be contacted by potential buyers. HOWEVER: If the artwork is selected for the exhibition, the artist may opt to show their website link instead of their email contact information with their entry by indicating such on their CaFE entry.
