How to register
The Artist Registration process is fast and straightforward, but if you are experiencing any difficulties with the form, please phone West Country Galleries on 0845 009 1774 and we will be able to assist you.
To begin the Artist Registration process you need to click on the “Artists Join Now” link on theright-hand-side of the homepage.
Once you have clicked this link you will be presented with a registration form to complete.
All fields with an Asterisk (*) are mandatory. In the login area please enter your email address and a password of your choice. Your email address will be assigned as your username, and confirmation of this and your password will be emailed to you once you have registered and been accepted.
The next two sections allow entry of some text about you.
1. Profile Summary – A couple of sentences about you and your work. This summary will appear under “Profile” on the right hand side of the page when visitors are viewing the ‘thumbnail’ images of your work.
2. Experience – an outline of your experience and qualifications, if applicable, this will be shown on your “About Me” page.
3. Additional Information – This last section allows the entry of the details of your agent, if someone introduced you to the site, your website details and also whether or not you would like to be included in the mailing list for our newsletter.
Once you have completed this form and clicked on the “Register” button, you will be taken to the Artist’s Homepage. To complete the registration process you will need to click on the “Full Profile” link on the left hand side navigation bar of the page under the “My Account” section.
On this page you can enter your full profile information – about you and your work, what inspires you, how you work etcetera. This, together with the summary and experience text you previously entered, will make up the main bulk of the content on the Artist’s “About Me” page. In addition, an input box and browse button allows the selection of a suitable profile image of you, the Artist, which is shown above your profile summary.
