About This Call
Helm & Oar is an online art gallery founded by artist and entrepreneur Brent Blossom from Laguna Beach, California. The gallery hosts digital files within its database and sends to print and framing production when artwork sells. Helm & Oar fulfills all orders through print-on-demand fine art manufacturers based in Portland, Los Angeles, Austin, and Miami, covering all production and fulfillment costs. The gallery receives over 40,000 unique visitors monthly.
Artists retain full rights to their work. Helm & Oar sends a license agreement allowing non-exclusive online sales of the artist's work, which can be terminated at any point with written notice. The gallery is accepting new artists whose work fits the gallery's aesthetic and consumer demand.
Artists receive a 20% commission from every sale, with current resident artists generating $2,000-$10,000 per month in passive revenue. Helm & Oar spends $15,000-$20,000 monthly on advertising and handles all post-sale responsibilities including print production, framing, shipping, and fulfillment. All resident artists receive access to a payout portal to track sales and commissions in real-time and request monthly payouts.
Photographers should submit 5-20 images with a brief description of each image. Application fee is $40. Applicants must be at least 18 years of age. The deadline is November 2, 2023 at 11:59 p.m. MDT, though early application before October 30th is recommended for onboarding before the holiday sales rush.
