Useful Tips for Buying Art - How to get more for your money

 

1-Buying from an independent artist will give you good value because many galleries take a comission of up to 60%.

2-Research and study the artist, make sure you learn about their life and career and look for an artist that is dedicated to their work.

3- Consider purchasing work from an emerging or mid career artist, their work is not overpriced and if the artist is comitted the value willl go up.

4- An artist with a unique style is more likely to draw attention than an artist that copies a style.

5-Meet the artist, learn what he or she is about, this will help you understand who they are, the essence of their work and where they're going.

6-Once you buy, make sure to promote your artist, the more your artist is known the more the value of their work and your investment increases.
