When you move up in weight class to higher level galleries they provide you with lots of extras. It is quite wonderful especially when your living off of a guards salary. Some of the bonuses include
- $1000 artist fee (my highest paid fee).
- $150 artists talk Honorarium (my second highest)
- 3 nights at a hotel
- gas money
- framing, if needed
- shipping costs, if needed
- money for a hotel and gas costs if I go back and pick up the prints (if they are not shipped)
Plus all the press releases, advertising in arts magazines etc.
The only other gallery exhibition that I have ever been apart of that does near this many things for the artist is the Art Gallery of St. Albert dad show of 2017.
Wonder what happens, what bonuses there are when you start getting shows at major galleries like the Vancouver Art Gallery or the Art Gallery of Alberta etc. To be able to show in places like those and get your stories seen by large groups of people would be so highly rewarding. With more money coming to the artist you would be able to do so much more donation work to help your subjects. Hopefully someday in the not so distant future will learn that stuff first hand.
