    Check out Handmade Nation a documentary about The Rise of DIY Art,
    Craft & Design coming out this year. It is in post production now.
    The book of the same name is due out in November of '08. 

    You should check out etsy.com, dawanda.com(the european etsy),
    shopify.com, bigcartel.com and supermarkethq.com. If you peruse these
    sites and read their artist profiles you will get a good idea of what
    they are all about. Go into the forums and see how hard they work to
    get their name out. 

    Most of these artists market and network really well. Dialogue
    through the internet is the key to selling.
