Pivoting from art as decoration to art as collection is a matter of mindset. Here are a couple of reasons to choose original art. 

REASONS TO BUILD A COLLECTION:

• Create a heritage to pass on to future generations
• Add depth and story to the spaces you spend time in
• Support artists and creators
• Fill empty walls
• Make your home an irreplaceable signature of who you are

 

REQUIREMENTS TO BUILD A COLLECTION:

• A place to display what inspires you
• A desire to live with original creations 

 

 

NON-ESSENTIALS IN BECOMING AN ART COLLECTOR:

• A million-dollar budget
• A background in art appreciation
