Artsy Shark showcases the talents of visual artists through individually published portfolio articles. Since 2010, more than 2,000 artists from around the world have been featured. Artists are selected through a Call for Artists that happens three times per year. Our current Call for Artists is now open. Submissions will be accepted until the deadline of January 18, 2024.

We encourage artists and makers in all mediums to apply, including: painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, mixed media, clay, fiber, digital art, collage, glass, wood, printmaking, metal and others.

Every published feature presents a collection of the artist’s work and tells their story in their own words. Artists may describe their inspiration, technique, concept or accomplishments. A prominent link in each article sends readers to the artist’s own website. This increases the opportunity to make sales, capture email addresses of interested visitors, and gain followers.

Featured artists are promoted through social media to our large following. We also promote all features to our extensive list of email subscribers. Every artist feature remains permanently accessible on our site. These be seen in our Featured Artist Gallery.

Apply Now

Artists who apply to be featured enter a competitive juried process. Not all artists will be selected. There is a nonrefundable application fee of $25. The deadline to submit your application is midnight on Thursday, January 18, 2024.

Our jurying process involves a thorough review of each application and the artist’s website or other online presence. Applicants will be notified of the results of their submission within three weeks of the deadline.

In addition to publication and promotion, every featured artist receives a customized “magazine style” version of their feature in PDF format which can be used as marketing collateral.

Artsy Shark receives no fees or commissions whatsoever for any sales or contracts that result from being featured.
