For most of us it can initially seem quite daunting to buy art online. In todays world though it is the easiest and most common way of purchasing a gorgeous original painting for your home. Plus you don't have to be limited by the art galleries in your area, you are literally open to a world full of options to get that perfect piece.
Bluethumb Art Gallery is Australia’s largest online art gallery connecting over 20,000 Australian artists with art buyers. Such an awesome gallery to be a part of! I have been onboard with them since 2017 and they are such a pleasure to work with. Plus they offer a return policy, free shipping Australia Wide and will do international shipping. They also offer framing options within Australia for your chosen artwork, so when it arrives on your doorstep all you have to do do is pop it up on your wall and smile at it happily!

Another international online art gallery that I am with is Singulart. Founded in 2017 Singulart encourages and supports artists and designers, whilst providing them with international visibility. With artists from over 110 countries around the world and 49% being women artists. It is wonderful to have that international viewing and purchasing opportunity. Plus I have found them to be very helpful and informative in trying to help me get the best opportunities for me as an artist, with guidance emails and helpful information. They safely ship globally and offer 14 day returns.
I appreciate and adore all of my online art galleries for taking me under their wing and helping give me a wider audience for my beautiful original artwork. For the buyer I think it comes down to personal preference on which gallery they may choose to buy from. Always go with your gut feeling and the one that you feel the most comfortable with.
