[Collector] Adding Artworks
If you haven’t added any artworks to your collection yet, you can go ahead and click Share an Artwork on your Artworks tab.
You can also choose to add an artwork by clicking the blue + sign on your screen and selecting Artwork on the menu. Once you’re on the Quick Add Artwork page you will see the information boxes to be filled out. The information on this page is the basic info we need to add your artwork to your collection, but adding more details through the Add More Details button will help you create a more comprehensive catalog.
Add your hi-res image of the artwork in your collection, select your Collection Board, write the name of the Artist and fill out all the other details to save your artwork. You can add more than one image.
Allowed Image types: png , jpg , svg (TIFF Files are not allowed)
