Who qualifies as a Professional Visual Artist?
A creator of visual art has the status of a professional visual artist if: earning a living through art making, or possessing a diploma in an area considered to be within the domain of the fine arts, or teaching art in a school of art or applied art, or whose work is often seen by the public or is frequently or regularly exhibited, or recognized as an artist by consensus of opinion among professional artists. (from International Artists Association definition)
Any artist who self-identifies as a professional visual artist qualifies for Regular Artist Status with VANL-CARFAC.
