When you buy art, you’re going to be making a significant investment. It’s important that you do your homework before taking the plunge.

Here are ten things you should keep in mind when it comes time to buy glass artwork.

1: Don’t just look at the art itself; look at the artist.

While it might seem a bit strange, this is your chance to get to know the artist as well as his or her artwork. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask! The artist should be able to give you some insight into their process and inspiration.

2: Pay attention to the title and materials of the artwork.

Some titles are more descriptive than others, so it might be helpful to know what inspired the artist in creating the piece or how they describe it. Also, some artists use different types of glass for different applications — for example, metal flake for backgrounds rather than for foreground elements — so knowing which type of glass was used is important.

3: Check out other works by that particular artist.

You want to make sure that you love this specific piece before buying it — and if you end up with a bunch of pieces from one artist and then decide that that person

Buying artwork is an exciting activity. If you’re buying a piece of art, you’re taking part in the artistic tradition and helping to keep it alive! But there are many things to consider when you buy artwork. If you don’t do your research, you may end up with a piece that doesn’t fit into your home or lifestyle.

Here are some tips on how to buy glass art:

1. Consider the artist’s reputation and history

2. Consider what you want the artwork to express about yourself

3. Consider the size of the artwork

4. Consider how much wall space is available for displaying artwork

5. Consider durability of the material and whether it can be cleaned easily

6. Consider how much you like the color scheme in the artwork

7. Consider where the best place will be for displaying the artwork

8. Consider whether any special tools are needed for hanging the artwork

9. Consider how long you plan to keep it (if it’s a one-of-a-kind work, or if you plan on moving soon)

10. Consider what kind of care instructions come with the piece

Art is a luxury. It is supposed to be fun, but you should not buy art as an investment. Many artists are very talented and some people spend thousands of dollars for their work. Some artists are even famous. But the price of the artwork does not necessarily reflect the value or quality of the artwork itself.

Most of the time, if you want to buy art for your home, you are buying it for decoration. You want to brighten up your living space and make it unique. If you buy glass art, there are several things to consider before buying it:

1) Look at this piece carefully. Does it look like a professional studio made it? Do you like it? Does it look like other glasswork you have seen in person? Is this piece a good representation of that artist’s work?

2) Consider how big the piece is and where you will put it. This will determine whether this piece is right for your space. It may also affect how much money you have to spend on it.

3) Think about how much time you will have to spend taking care of this piece and keep it looking clean. Glass artwork can be very beautiful but they can also be very delicate and require special care when cleaning them.*

4) The

If you’re art-buying, keep in mind the things below. In my experience, most glass artists I’ve worked with have not considered these things to be important. They don’t seem to realize that they’re doing this work for you.

I know that sounds condescending, but bear with me. Most artists are craftsmen or artisans, people who make things within a certain set of constraints and goals. They want to make good pieces that sell at a high price and get good reviews. And that’s great! That’s what it means to be a working artist. (A famous artist is an artist who has made it big enough that he can afford not to think about money.) But the problem is that if you’re going to pay $500 for a piece of artwork, then you need to have some idea of what you’re buying into.

This is not about makers vs. collectors; I buy glasswork myself and am not criticizing “collectors” as some sort of class of person who only likes expensive stuff and doesn’t appreciate the hard work that goes into it. Rather, I’m talking specifically about choices artists make when they put their art out there for sale: choices that affect both how we see the art and how we relate to the

Why buy glass art? Because you like it. But here are 10 things to consider before you buy, to help ensure that you get what you want.

1. The more a piece is worked on and changed, the more value it has. If a piece of art has been worked on for months or years, the artist will have had opportunity to change it so it looks the best it can. This costs time, effort, and money. And time is the one thing an artist doesn’t have in abundance.

2. Artists like to be able to take risks with their work. When they stretch themselves in some way, they hope that people will appreciate this and thus be willing to pay more for the work than they would otherwise have done.

3. Artists don’t want to be told what to do by galleries and collectors: they want freedom of expression and to be appreciated for who they are as artists first and foremost. They want people to admire their art because of what they did with their own hands and minds; not because someone else thought it looked pretty or interesting or different enough from other well-known artworks recently released into the world.

4. We can ask artists about their works’ prices; but we shouldn’t expect them to explain why they

I am often asked the question, “What should I buy if I want to buy art?” My answer is always the same: “Art.”

I understand that buying art is a difficult undertaking for some people. It is like asking what you should get your husband or wife if you want to get them jewelry. Their taste in jewelry differs from yours and they have made it clear that they don’t want you to buy them a necklace, bracelet or earrings. You should buy them something they will appreciate and love.

1. Do you have a budget in mind?

2. What is your style?

3. What works well in your home?

4. Consider size and scale.

5. How much wall space do you have and where will this new piece fit in?

6. Keep it fresh and contemporary by choosing the right artist, who will create the right piece for you!

7. What is the story behind this art?

8. Do you want to spend more to get more?

9. Are you buying for investment or for enjoyment (or both)?

10. Is this art handmade or factory made?
