Social media is playing a larger role in how collectors buy art online. The company is working on finishing the app that will provide all of this and much more; it’s expected to be the Uber for art collectors, investors, buyers and sellers. We believe this application will have the potential to scale up.

In some cases Artistic Ventures may purchase works of art it appraises or arrange the sale collecting a profit as a revenue stream.In addition Artistic Ventures will introduce a selling platform where artists, galleries and members will be able to offers their artwork online and a commission % will be charged. Artistic Ventures will seek to make licensing deals with commercially viable artists for lower priced prints, posters and merchandise to sell on its site.
