Before we launched The Naked Frame, we wanted to test out our assumptions about the needs of art patrons and photographers. We sent out a survey to our friends and promised that for every response, we would donate $1 to Doctors Without Borders. We received 71 responses to the survey and in the spirit of things, we are rounding it up to $100 and making the donation today in addition to the amounts we donated personally.
We want to thank everyone who completed the survey (and in some cases, painfully so since the survey was quite long for those who identified themselves as both art patrons and photographers) since it helped us to get an insight into how people regard photographic art, and what photographers themselves want in a art marketplace. Our alpha launch was an attempt to throw ourselves headlong into the world of photographic art retail, but we will be building the beta version very carefully while keeping the needs of buyers and sellers in mind. Our goal is to not merely create yet another website where you can find art, but to create one that you will love and recommend to others. So keep an eye out for updates from us, and in the meantime, you can go through the art pieces that we have carefully selected and presented on the website, and maybe a few of these will grace your walls!
