Why not take the value of the relationships and create something that generates value for both sides?
You could create an artist association, which offerred services such as con and art show bookings for a nominal fee, generating an income for you, providing a central clearinghouse for contacting all the artists, and giving them an opportunity to increase their sales and appearance fees.
Relationships have value - you just have to think of a way to capitalize on that value in a way that benefits both parties.
