It can also be intimidating, especially if you&#8217;re not familiar with the artist&#8217;s work. To help you make an informed decision, here are a few important points to keep in mind when purchasing original artwork.<\/p>\n<p>TIP 1: Purchase what you love!<\/p>\n<p>This is first and foremost the most important tip to remember. While selecting original artwork as an investment is a smart idea, it won&#8217;t do much good if you purchase pieces that don&#8217;t appeal to you personally.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s hard not to let your head get in the way of your heart, so it&#8217;s best to take a step back when making this kind of purchase and give yourself some time to think about it before coming to a final decision. There&#8217;s nothing wrong with buying something just for the financial aspect alone, but you have to question why that is and determine if it&#8217;s really what you want or more like an obligation. If it doesn&#8217;t feel right then it probably isn&#8217;t right for you.<\/p>\n<p>TIP 2: Know who did what and when they did it.<\/p>\n<p>When investigating art as an investment many novice art buyers focus on trying to collect the &#8220;big names&#8221; rather than following their own tastes or investigating new talent that might be emerging<\/p>\n<p>Whether you are a collector, an artist, or a dealer, there are ways to tell whether a piece of art is authentic or produced by an artist. If the work is not genuine, consult a professional for assistance.<\/p>\n<p>What makes a work of art genuine? When someone purchases an original piece of artwork and takes it home, he or she should be able to feel the difference. There&#8217;s just something about it that feels special. It&#8217;s as if the art itself has its own aura.<\/p>\n<p>Some people describe this &#8220;aura&#8221; as a certain energy that seems to emanate from the piece. Others call it a feeling of pride that they have something only others can possess. Whatever the feeling is, it&#8217;s intangible and difficult to describe.<\/p>\n<p>Why do some works of art just seem to ooze with this special feeling? It&#8217;s because they have been created with the help of intuition and inspiration rather than by following instructions or copying something already done before.<\/p>\n<p>Artists who create such work are able to guide their creative energies in such a way that the end result is more than what was planned for. The artist let his inner self take over and show him how best to express himself and how best to use his materials. He let himself become one with his art instead<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lTH-CcpqbU4?autoplay=1&#038;mute=1\"><\/iframe><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2pjT31KB7hI?autoplay=1&#038;mute=1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Though I&#8217;ve been painting for over 25 years, it is only in the last few months that I have actually started to sell my work.
