Buying Art Online From A Reputable Oil Painter
There are a few reasons for us to buy art. You may want a decoration for your home, allowing your walls to speak with personality and warmth. You may want to give a special present to express your affections to someone who loves art, in knowing they will own a one of a kind gift. Another reason to buy art is as an investment in order to sell it later for a higher price. In both these cases the originality of the piece is crucial. Here are some suggestions of how to verify the originality of the artwork you intend to buy.
You may also be an independent collector, or working as a buyer for a certain institute. These are very different purposes for buying art, and each purpose defines its own demands. Consider not only the piece itself, but the range of prices and the reputation of the artist by reading up on reviews and the press. Once you have defined all these elements, looking for the exact piece that suits you will be much easier.If you can afford an original historical piece you might want to also consider hiring an artist to paint a reproduction. How awesome is that!
Don't be afraid to trust your own intuition. In buying art your personal taste is the final test. You cannot buy something you absolutely hate just because the artist is very popular and it is a good investment. Consider the style, skill and over all concept. Are you looking for something different or a painting that is popular in theme and color composition.
The best choice always takes into account that emotional "click" between you and the piece. If the emotional click is there you may even want to take it a step further and request a custom painting of your choice.This way you can allow room for the artist to contribute to the her or his artistic enhancement of your concept.
There are many artists with amazing technique. But excellent art needs more than technique. A good piece of art should always have that touch of brilliance and skill, with the ability to communicate something which is more than just the image, but of something powerful.
