Your Art in Print
The Guild Sourcebook of Art is the industry standard for finding commissionable artwork. Design professionals turn to Guild Sourcebooks again and again as trusted directories; they know that the artists featured are juried by design and marketing professionals on the quality of their work and photography.

The Guild designs and produces your sourcebook ad for you. We provide easy instructions on how to prepare and submit your images and copy. When complete materials are received, our experienced production staff will lay out your ad, edit your copy, and email a proof to you. Once you've approved your proof, we'll then oversee the printing of your page, including correcting for accurate color. The result: a handsomely designed, beautifully printed presentation of your work in a book used by thousands of art and design professionals. To top it off, page reprints of full-page ads are available at a rock-bottom rate!

Your Art Online
Whether you choose a full- or half-page ad your work will be visible on this website for one year. Because the Guild Sourcebook marketing package blends traditional print advertising with online exposure, your work will be accessible through two marketing channels for one reasonable price. Moreover, the online sourcebook page allows registered art and design professionals to email you directly and share images of your work with their clients and colleagues with just a few clicks of the mouse.
