Warm living room with framed artwork on the walls — art displayed in a stay-worthy home setting.

ASTRO Programs

AArtners

Sell your art on your terms, and let every reproduction keep paying — discovered in real homes, not just on a screen.

Founding artists: help shape AArtners — read our note on artist control and proposed workflows.

Your art deserves more than one sale and a quiet wall. AArtners turns a public ASTRO storefront into a governed gallery: you show originals, authorized reproductions, commissions, and consigned pieces, and you keep control of the work at every step. Buyers discover you online, and participating ASTRO owners can feature selected pieces in the places people actually stay—so the work is seen in a real room, not just on a screen.

Who AArtners is for

For artists

Create a public artist storefront, add your work, choose what is available, and share your ASTRO URL directly with buyers, owners, and collectors.

For owners

Feature real work by AArtners artists in your property and give guests something a commodity rental can't copy: an original on the wall, the artist's story, and a piece they can take home.

For guests and collectors

Discover artists online or through the places you stay—where you live with a piece for a few days before you decide. Buy or inquire about originals, reproductions, or commissions when available, and take the work home.

How AArtners works

Build your artist profile

Tell people who you are, where you are based, what you make, and what inspires the work. Add your website or social links so people can keep following you.

Add the work you want to show

AArtners can support paintings, photography, prints, digital art, sculpture, ceramics, textiles, mixed media, decor pieces, and other artist-made goods—including titles, images, medium, size, price where it applies, shipping notes, and care or installation details when they matter.

Choose what is available

Some work may be for sale as an original. Some may be available as prints or reproductions. Some may be inquiry-only, consigned to a property, or shown as part of your portfolio. If you accept commissions, your profile can advertise that separately.

Share your ASTRO artist storefront directly

Your public storefront URL is yours to put on cards, social bios, email signatures, and anywhere else you meet buyers and fans.

Get featured in properties

Owners can choose art that fits their home, location, guest experience, or design style—giving you real-world exposure to guests in addition to your online storefront.

Buyers, collectors, and owners inquire or buy

When a piece is available for purchase, buyers can buy directly or submit inquiries. Custom quotes, consignment conversations, or special fulfillment can be guided right from the page.

What kinds of work fit AArtners?

AArtners is built for more than framed wall art. Artists can present originals, prints, reproductions, photography, digital work, sculpture, ceramics, textiles, mixed media, decor objects, and consigned pieces placed in participating properties.

The common thread is simple: the work should be something buyers can find on your storefront, an owner could choose to feature, or a collector could bring home.

One work, several possible futures: a single piece can be offered as an original for sale, as authorized reproductions, or inquiry-only, and placed for property placement and consignment, portfolio display, or commissions — the artist chooses any combination.

What the artist gets

Your art on your storefront, sold on your terms — and on each tier you offer, you name the price you want to net. The original sells once, but the wall sells reproductions: a guest who lives with the piece for a few days is a warm buyer, and every reproduction they order keeps paying you exactly what you named for as long as you keep that tier turned on.

Original versus authorized reproductions: the original is one physical work sold once to a single buyer, while authorized reproductions such as prints, canvas, and framed prints may be created and sold only while the artist's authorization is active.

A guest doesn't have to choose between a postcard and a ten-thousand-dollar original. You decide which rungs of the reproduction ladder to turn on: keepsakes like cards and small merchandise; museum-quality giclée and framed prints, made to order; and Embellished Art—a giclée base you hand-finish with your own paint, texture, or gold leaf as a signed, numbered edition.

You name the price you want to net on each tier — Merch, Suitable for Hanging, Embellished, and Original. Set a price per tier you want to offer; leave a tier off if you don't want to reproduce the work that way. ASTRO's program margin, production, and processing layer on top of your number — buyers cover everything, and you net exactly what you named.

Buyers pay one live price that covers production, your named price, and the ASTRO program margin. We do not sell artist ranking or paid placement.

And your control never leaks. In AArtners, authority never cascades: showing a piece is not consent to sell it, selling an original is not consent to reproduce it, and hanging your work in a property is not consent to sell prints from it. Each step is its own gate, and you hold every one.

ASTRO records the order and the plan; you (or your print partner) execute the fulfillment.

Owners who choose to feature your work in a participating property help guests discover pieces in context. For consigned originals, shipping or placement costs follow the consignment arrangement.

Consignment and property placement

Some originals may be placed inside participating ASTRO properties on consignment. That turns the property into a discovery setting, not just a fulfillment address: guests meet the work in a real home over several days, the way a screen can never show it. It complements your online storefront; it does not replace it.

When a piece is consigned, the artist and owner agree to the placement. ASTRO can help coordinate the listing, artwork page, guest discovery path, and purchase or inquiry flow.

Consigned pieces should have a review period. If a piece does not sell, the artist and owner can renew the placement, rotate in new work, or arrange return shipping.

When possible, owners should keep reusable packing materials for safe return or rotation.

Who can participate?

Artists can join AArtners and build a public storefront. Sales can happen directly from that storefront. Property-connected placements are optional and depend on ASTRO owner and property verification when owners choose to feature work—so guests see art in a trusted property context when it applies.

FAQ

Quick answers for artists, owners, and guests. For details as the program evolves, this page stays oriented to how participation works in plain language.

Artists can present originals, prints, reproductions, photography, digital work, sculpture, ceramics, textiles, decor objects, mixed media, commissions, inquiry-only pieces, or consigned works placed in participating properties. Some works may be ready to buy; others may require shipping details, custom pricing, pickup or installation coordination, or a conversation with the artist.

No. Local art can be powerful, but owners may also feature artists whose work fits their space, audience, or story.

The artist sets the amount they want to receive. The buyer-facing price may include the artist payout, payment processing, production, fulfillment, and ASTRO’s program margin.

Yes, if you authorize reproductions for that work. You can choose whether an original is available only as the original, as prints, or both. If reproductions are enabled, ASTRO can offer supported sizes, materials, and formats through its print fulfillment partners. Artists continue to receive payment from authorized reproduction sales for as long as the reproduction arrangement remains active.

The original is no longer available once sold. If the artist has authorized reproductions, ASTRO may continue offering prints or other approved formats. The artist continues to receive payment from authorized reproduction sales for as long as the reproduction arrangement remains active and both parties agree.

Yes. Artists and owners may agree to feature specific pieces inside participating properties. Consigned work can be available for purchase, inquiry-only, shown as portfolio work, or part of a rotating display. If you accept commissions, that is indicated at the artist profile level rather than by labeling individual inventory pieces as the commission offering.

The consignment arrangement should make this clear before the piece ships. In many cases, the property owner covers shipping to receive the work. ASTRO may provide shipping labels, packing guidance, or materials where supported.

Shipping and fulfillment depend on the type of work. Originals, commissions, and consigned pieces may require artist or owner coordination. Reproductions may be fulfilled through ASTRO-supported print partners where available.

Yes. Owners control what they feature in their property experience, subject to ASTRO program rules and artist availability.
