14 Considerations for Buying Art
Art is what makes your house a home. It makes your home come alive and become a place that you enjoy to spend time in.
When it comes to buying art first and foremost you need to buy what speaks to you. It has to be something that you absolutely love. Before even designing a room it helps to know what will be going on the wall. Let your art collection be the focal point.
There are many things to consider when it comes to buying artwork for your home.

Here is a list of 14 questions to consider when buying art:
Is it important to buy local?
Is it important to buy from someone you know?
Where will this artwork be displayed?
What size of space do you have?
What does the decor of your space look like?
Does the art come framed or need to be framed?
What frame or display method suits the artwork?
Does this piece of art mesh well with other artwork or photographs?
What is the budget to spend on art?
Is this the right investment for me and my home at this time?
What colour are the walls, flooring and nearby furniture?
What is your design style?
Is this something you will love in the future or is it just a trend?
Is there enough lighting for the artwork?
Once you have thought about the above considerations it will be easier for you to make a purchasing decision.
Owning original art is an investment in your home and how you express your sense of style/personality. Therefore, make sure you do your research so you can be completely satisfied with your purchase!
Since art is an investment I offer a certificate of authenticity to be able to feel comfortable about the investment in the future.

Tip for buying Art:
If you are working with a lower budget to buy art you can reach out to an artist by asking them for a smaller work or a print of something they have already made.
You could also consider joining your favourite artist's mailing list to stay up to date with when they offer sales or discounts.
