Getting Started

How to submit your work, what happens next, and the key parts of the Artist Agreement — in plain words.

How to submit your work

There's no form to fill out right now — just an email. Here's how it works:

  1. Send us an email Email [email protected] with the subject line "Artist submission." That subject line helps us find it quickly.
  2. Tell us a little about yourself Your name (or the name you want credited), how you identify (autistic, neurodivergent, self-identified — all fine), and a sentence or two about your art practice. Nothing formal required.
  3. Share at least one piece Attach an image or share a link to your work. High resolution is better, but don't let that stop you from reaching out. We can work with what you have.
  4. We'll follow up We review every submission and respond within two weeks — usually sooner. We'll let you know if it's a fit, ask questions if we have them, and walk you through next steps.

If writing emails is hard, if you want a family member or caregiver to submit on your behalf, or if there's any other access need — just let us know and we'll figure it out together. The process should work for you, not the other way around.


What happens after you're featured

Once your work is live on the site:

  1. Buyers contact us When someone is interested in your work, they reach out to us via the artwork page.
  2. We connect you directly We forward the inquiry to you — or connect the buyer directly with your contact info, whichever you prefer.
  3. You handle the sale The transaction is between you and the buyer. You set the price, you arrange payment, you ship the work. We're not in the middle.
  4. You keep everything 100% of the sale goes to you. We take nothing.

The Artist Agreement — key points

When you're featured on Art 4 AU Love US, you're agreeing to the Artist Agreement. Here are the parts that matter most:

Your art stays yours. We never claim ownership. Being featured here doesn't transfer any rights to us.
100% of every sale goes to you. We take zero commission. Ever.
You can remove your work anytime. Email us and we'll process it within 7 days, no questions asked.
AI-assisted work is welcome — with disclosure. If your work involved AI tools, be transparent about it when submitting.
30 days notice before any changes. If we update the Artist Agreement in a meaningful way, we'll tell you 30 days in advance.

The full agreement is at artist-agreement.html — it's written in plain language and worth reading before you submit.
