I don’t want to walk in my local art gallery expecting to make business if they stick to professionals.
In fact, where do galleries get all of their art from? Do they buy it, or are things donated? Or a combination of both?
Get some business cards made up or a5 folded cards which you can print some of your images on.
Traipse around to the galleries in your area and enquire about exhibiting or displaying there.
Do not be pushy and if they want to see your book (portfolio) then arrange for a time convenient to the gallery manager/owner to do so.
Yes, galleries will display and sell anything from anyone if they think they can sell it or if it will get people through the door.
Only the major art galleries and museus will have works donated.

I’m an artist who lives in the Delaware County outside of Philadelphia, Pa., would like to show my art work and sale my art in art galleries.
Do you have a portfolio of your work? If so, then you are halfway there. If not, get busy – that is step #1, and you will use it so much more than you think.
A portfolio does not have to be fancy – if you are on a budget (like me) a nice plain photo album with GOOD pictures representing your work. Note ‘Current Available Pieces’ as well as ‘Past Sold Works’.
Get some cheap but nice looking business cards (Vistaprint.com)
You do not even have to have that part done yet to go scope out some galleries. Visit as a shopper and see who carries local artists. Pay attention to the types of art they have in the gallery as well as the price ranges and ask yourself if yours would ‘fit’.
When you have a decent portfolio & cards, go BACK to the galleries that support local artists and that you think would be a good fit for your style.
SMILE.
Introduce yourself, and start asking some questions. Show your portfolio; hand them a business card. Ask if they have a jury process, or if there are certain times that they accept new art. What is thier commission?
Make sure you always have a smaller, easily portable ACTUAL piece with you at all times!! (If that is possible for what you do)
Remeber that you have to sell yourself and your own talent first if you are going to get anywhere.
Good Luck!
