And when you do so, make sure to follow our tips on how to exhibit your artworks at an outdoor fair. Read on:
-Make your work look as professional as possible. Ensure that your art is nicely framed and wired in the back. For better visibility, you could hang it on a display rack.
-Presentation is everything. Don't just stack up your paintings against a wall or hap hazard. Put them on a stand. Take time to arrange them neatly and in a sequence or according to colour.
-Price cards are just as important, so pay attention to them. Print out cards with the title of the painting, its size and price along with your name and tape them to the display racks just under the paintings.
-You could also set up a small business table alongside the works which can serve as a sales desk. This will show that you mean serious business. Place some business cards, your bio-data and some information of your art on it. An additional tip: make sure you put your bio-data and business card in the bag with the art, the customer might wish to find you again in the future!
-Wear a name tag so people will know who the artist is. Talk to people as they come into your area and without being too pushy, show them your artworks and start talking to them about it. You could start by explaining what they are looking at. For instance, if they are viewing a landscape, then tell them where the scene is from.
-Do a demo. This is a great way to have people stop and stare for a while. You want them to stay in your booth as long as possible and ask questions. If they see you working, they will get attracted to your stall.

Muse unveil artwork for new album 'The 2nd Law' - NME
Muse have unveiled the artwork for their new album 'The 2nd Law', which you can see at the top of the page.
The cover is a photograph of the human brain and is taken from The Human Connectome Project. It is an image which navigates the brain's pathways, tracking the circuits in our heads and shows how we process information with bright, neon colors.
The album itself, which will be released on September 17, contains a total of 13 tracks and includes the band's recent single 'Survival'. 'The 2nd Law' is the follow-up to 2009's 'The Resistance' and has been recorded in London.
Speaking previously about the record, the band have promised that it will be "very diverse", with frontman Matt Bellamy saying: "We've tried a bunch of new things, which the trailer gives a glimpse of. There's only one song that's like that. We've basically tried to do what Rage Against The Machine did with hip-hop in the 1990s and take a bit of the electronic world and dubstep and play it with real instruments. There's only one track like that, the rest of it is very, very diverse."
The Devon trio will tour the UK in October, playing five shows. The gigs begin at Glasgow's SECC on October 24, before the band move onto London's O2 Arena for two shows on October 26 and 27. They then play Birmingham LG Arena on October 30 before finishing up at Manchester Arena on November 1.
The tracklisting for 'The 2nd Law' is as follows:
'Supremacy'
'Madness'
'Panic Station'
'Prelude'
'Survival'
'Follow Me'
'Animals'
'Explorers'
'Big Freeze'
'Save Me'
'Liquid State'
'The 2nd Law: Unsustainable'
'The 2nd Law: Isolated System'
