An art dealer is a person or company that buys and sells works of art or acts as the intermediary between the buyers and sellers. In contemporary art, art dealers typically seek out various artists to represent and build a relationship between themselves, collectors, and museums whose interests are likely to match the represented artist's work. Dealers often travel internationally, frequent exhibitions, artists' studios and studios looking for good buys.

Legal implications
I am aware of the fact that an artist needs public liability insurance in order to put their art on exhibition, this covers the policyholder against any claims made by third parties (e.g. members of the public). A member of the public might make a claim if they are injured during an exhibition for example. Artists' insurance also covers loss of property like tools, supplies, and artwork from risks like fire, natural disasters, lightning strikes or theft (business personal property). Loss of a studio building you own. Loss of tools, display equipment, or artwork away from your studio, such as at an art show, doing an installation, or in transit.
I also understand that you don't work and you sell items as a hobby business, you won't pay income tax on profits less than £12,570 (your personal allowance). Below is an example of how much you might pay for the current tax year: Income from employment: £40,000. Profits from self-employment: £14,000.
