It seems you are here because you are curious about buying art. No matter if it's everyday art or a gallery-quality presentation, my work or someone else's. Here's why you should consider buying art straight from the artist.
- You can own and display unique work that shows your personal sense of style and your personality. Displaying art is one way we tell the world who we are.
- You have a story about buying the art, and you also know the story about the art itself. Buying from the artist means knowing the artist. Knowing the artist means knowing the stories behind the art. You would never brag that you ordered your art from Amazon. If you know the artist - well that's something to brag about.
- Buying from the artist allows you to ask for customization. Suppose you want an image printed on a material like wood or acrylic. Or it could be that you have a difficult spot to fill on a wall and a custom size is the best answer. If you know the artist, it's easy to ask about the possibilities.
- It's easy to ask the artist what materials they used to produce a particular work. For photographic art, you might want to know that the paper and ink are of archival grade and will last a lifetime.
- Limited edition prints are extra special. Knowing the artist makes it easy to be at the front of the line for those unique limited prints.
- Art isn't about trends - it's about you. You know what you like when you see it. And buying what you connect with is most meaningful. Connecting with the artist reinforces that connection.
- Finally, YOU are a unique and delightful person. You deserves to be surround with beautiful things. Only you can decide to do that. Knowing the artist can aid in having the confidence to invest in beautiful art. Surround yourself with those beautiful things and live life a little bit better.
