Submission Guidelines...


Currently we are only looking for outdoor sculpture and our first preference is to find and represent the local sculptors. Before you decide to present a portfolio please spend some time looking through this site to get a sense of the type of work we carry and the price points. Also, we encourage you to personally visit Pippin Meikle Fine Art and view the area we're developing for our sculpture garden.

Here is some other important information to keep in mind while deciding whether to submit your slides:

Pippin Meikle Fine Art prefers to show the work of Santa Fe area sculptors.

Pippin Meikle Fine Art receives a 50% commission for all sold work.

After you've done your research and feel that you're a good fit for Pippin Meikle Fine Art - here is the procedure to submit your portfolio:

1. Submit 12-20 slides or a CD/DVD of available work. Please be sure that each of your slides is labeled with your name and the details of the work. Remember, the quality of your images will affect our response. (If we accept your work for display, you will need to provide professional quality images for each piece of artwork we consign.)

2. Include a resume, cover letter, and statement about your art and be sure to include a SASE for the return of your materials.

3. Electronic portfolios or Web site links are another acceptable method for submitting your images.

4. Work is assessed for its quality, originality, and potential to enhance the collection exhibited by the gallery. Our artists vary widely in terms of their age, education and experience.

5. The review process takes from 6-8 weeks.

6. If your work is selected for further review, we will arrange an appointment with you to see originals and visit your studio, if possible.

7. All of our works are on consignment from the artists. We have short-term, renewable, non-exclusive contracts.

If you have additional questions about portfolio review, please call 505.992.0400 and we will be happy to assist you.

Please do not submit your portfolio without first checking with us. We appreciate you and the efforts you're making with your art. Though it would be nice to have the time to review all portfolios, we simply cannot do it. Any unsolicited portfolios that are mailed to us without a return postage paid envelope will be discarded.
