Not very many of the artists on this forum work with galleries, since a lot of galleries don't like to carry portraiture. Galleries prefer to keep control of the sale and with a commission process they lose that.
I would suggest you order a couple of the art marketing books that are available through the book section of this site. They suggest things like emailing the galleries and asking how and when they like submissions to be sent. Many galleries have a set procedure for reviewing new work .(They may want a set of 20 slides mailed to them, for example). Good luck!
