    I'm currently setting up a gallery in a small tourist driven town
    where we happened to have alot of artists of various persausions
    around in "the hills" They have no studios open to the public and if
    they did I doubt the lazy tourist would seek them out. Our gallery
    has been set up with the artists wellfare in mind. The only way we
    can run this store is on a commission basis 60/40. The artists for
    the most part are thrilled to have an oportunity to be able to show
    their work. Commission is not for everyone but it does give those
    who can't yet sell outright or want just a chance to show what they
    do. Without this chance the artists would never been seen. I know
    because I'm one of these artists and I was very happy to have that
    first gallery give me a chance. Finding a gallery that has a decent
    attitude toward the artist is not impossible.
