Antonia Ficova is a PhD candidate who creates impressionist paintings in the styles of Monet, Renoir, and Van Gogh. She emailed Carly Shearer asking for recommendations on galleries to sell her work. Carly responded that she could not personally recommend any galleries, but suggested Antonia research local galleries online and contact those displaying similar styles. Carly advised Antonia to work with galleries to find buyers, set prices, and establish an auction record for her artwork.

Hi Antonia,
Unfortunately, that is not really my area of expertise, so can’t really offer personal recommendations of any
galleries. I would suggest having a look online for galleries in your local area and look at the artists/artworks
they offer and see if they have any similarities with your style and if yes, get in touch to discuss your work.
Hope that is helpful.
All best wishes,
Carly

Dear Antonia,
Many thanks for your enquiry.
Your artworks look very nice, however, we are not able to handle works by artists without an established
auction record. If you are looking to find a market for your work and establish prices, we would recommend
contacting galleries – they will be able to find buyers and help you to set prices.
I am sorry we are unable to help any further at this time.
Good luck!
Carly
