The beholder

The beholder is an online art gallery that provides artists an opportunity to exhibit and sell their creations. Created by San Francisco based designer/curator Suzanne Shade, it has been serving the art community since 2005.

We felt that there were a lot of people who find it difficult to find and buy art outside of the gallery system. And knew there were many artists who wanted to connect with larger audiences. The web seemed a natural place for that to happen.

The design of the website is very simple and understated, allowing the exhibited artwork to shine. With hundreds of artists in its database including painters, illustrators, and photographers, the Beholder is a great resource for anyone looking to buy art online. And since they only ask for 20% commission, it’s also a great opportunity for artists looking for exposure and profit. Kudos to Suzanne et al. for making all this happen.
