Applying to this?
This one wants what they all want: images, titles, year, medium, dimensions. Keep those on the works themselves and Samlio lays out the portfolio for you, one work to a page, with prices left out of the file that goes to the jury.
Every other Tuesday, three calls worth your evening, with what they pay, what they cost and who they really suit. The same reading you just did, done for you, and an honest word on which one to try.
