Leslie, I haven't had any dealings with galleries outside of those which housed portrait competitions. Business cards were encouraged since the shows were run by portrait societies who were subletting the galleries.

I do have an upcoming show this spring in a gallery that is run by a portrait agent so business cards are not going to handed out by individual artists. This is a first for me so we'll see how it goes. As always, I'm pessimistically optimistic about the outcome.

Anyone who views at a painting by me will see my very legible signature, Mattelson, and if they want to pursue me, they can type my name into google and locate me with no trouble. The uniqueness of my last name is an advantage in this case.
