Anthony,
Sounds to me like a good way to waste paintings and time, my opinion. I think that if an art dealer likes your work and thinks they can sell it, then they will take it into their gallery, regardless of your "qualifications" or who has your art.
Let me postscript that statement by saying I do portraiture exclusively right now. I haven't had anything in galleries for several years, so get others' opinions on it, please.
If you are going to donate, I believe that we should do it for something worthwhile that we love, AND, get something out of it like advertising. For example, I love the symphony. I donate a head and shoulders portrait to a symphony fund raising event every year. They agree to let me display a painting, portfolio, and business cards at the event. They get the benefit of my gift, I get the benefit of marketing my services to their patrons.
