5 reasons why you should buy original art:
Buying original art is not just an investment in a monetary sense, it’s an investment in creativity, culture, and personal satisfaction.
- It support Artists (like me) Directly: Buying original art provides direct financial support to artists, allowing them to continue with their work and contribute to the cultural melting pot, plus encouraging them to keep producing inspiring works.
- Unique: Original art is ‘one-of-a-kind’. Owning a piece of original art means you’re the custodian of something truely unique in the world that speaks to every day. It adds a distinctive chapter to your story brightening up your home in a away that a mass-produced piece of art simply cannot do.
- Enhance Your Living Environment: Art has the power to transform any living space into a more vibrant, engaging, and sophisticated place. Original art can be a focal point of your home decor, reflecting your personality and creating an atmosphere that enhances your home.
- Potential for Appreciation: While the primary motive for buying art should be that you ‘love for the piece’, original art has the potential to appreciate in value over time. As the artist’s reputation grows, so too can the worth of their work (which is exactly true of mine). This makes buying an original piece of my art not just a matter of aesthetic pleasure but also a potential investment because it holds its value over time. Unlike stocks and shares, art tends not to go up and down in value based on market fluctuations.
- Emotional Connection: Original art carries the energy and intention of its creator, offering a deeper emotional and aesthetic experience. This connection can inspire creativity, provoke thought, evoke a wide range of emotions, make a truely unique gift or enrich your daily life. Living with art that brings a smile to your face can be a source of continuous inspiration and comfort.
In essence, purchasing original art is a multi layered decision that benefits the art community, enhances your environment, and connects you to the emotions conveyed in the piece by the artist.
