supporting artists

Rodrigues Contemporary is an online gallery working just like a bricks and mortar gallery.  We promote artists and sell their original works, in many media and styles, in order to allow them to focus on creating their art.  A feature artist page is developed on our website for each artist highlighting the artist bio, images of the artworks and a description. We post on our Instagram with over 10,000 followers.  Artists and their work are featured in our newsletters to art collectors and former clients.  Similar to hosting a pop-up art show, we can facilitate online exhibitions at our discretion.

  • Support on pricing and titling your work
  • Reaching new audiences
  • Submitting work to galleries for consideration
  • Providing encouragement and accountability
