I very rarely post here, but I read a few of the boards on the daily. One of my side hustles is to paint portraits of athletes.

Try Saatchi Art. My SIL is an artist when she’s not teaching and told us about it. We’ve bought a couple of things off there.

Coffee shops are another prominent venue for local fine artists. Also downtown fine art boutique shops. Have also seen quite a few set up shop at various festivals (town fests, music festivals, etc) and such. It kind of depends on your style where you might want to feature them. Whereabouts are you located?

Best bet is to set up your own website with a shop and sell your prints and originals there. You'll have to do some basic social media marketing via Instagram, facebook and the other usual suspects, but it's cheap and easy. Most of the turnkey services like WIX have templates and sales integration ready to go.
Any of the other places like Saatchi Art, as someone else had mentioned, you'd need an artist rep or an agent to connect you with galleries or in your case, since it's athletes, memorabilia shops.
Also know that if you're doing portrait work, you could end up with licensing issues, unless you have permission or a partnership with the athlete. Most of them have incorporated themselves and their image and likeness is a protected IP.
If you're staying small you might fly under the radar, but don't be surprised if you end up with a cease and desist order in the mail.

People love to purchase LSU stuff. Post some of your work here if you have that!
