By Rosella Campbell


If you have an interest in collecting art, there are a number of options available to make purchasing easy even if you have little experience. The guide to follow includes a number of simple tips for locating figurative and genre art to buy. In fact, there are some unexpected venues which you may not have considered.

One of the more obvious places to learn about and purchase paintings is an art gallery. These are located all over the world and you only have to do an Internet search to find one near you. Use the opportunity to research what types of work the gallery sells to find out if it appeals to you.

You should remember that viewing work in person is the most authentic way to experience the texture, color, scale and feeling. Some distortions can occur in photographing work, so it is well worth taking this step if possible. You might find that you change your mind about which pieces to purchase once you have seen them in person.

There are also galleries in some unexpected places, including book stores, coffee shops and even bowling alleys. In addition, there are artists who sell their work through galleries based at their studios. This offers an option for supporting local makers in your area.

The art fair is another popular place to purchase paintings and artworks. You may find information on fairs in your area by visiting a local community center. Check out the bulletin board for listings of local events.

The Internet has provided countless new opportunities to buy and sell art. In fact, websites which showcase paintings are increasingly advanced. It is sometimes possible to zoom in on the work in order to get a good look at the texture and surface detail.

You can even search for paintings to match your existing decor, by typing in a color choice on some websites. These searchable abilities make it easy to locate genre and figurative work with a few clicks. Undoubtedly, the Internet has brought convenience and ease to shopping for artworks.

For further tips on this subject, you can find much helpful information on the Internet. Blogs and websites which are dedicated to helping consumers to choose and purchase art for their living spaces are plentiful. As well, homes and interior design magazines often include articles with practical tips for buying paintings. Last of all, in light of all this advice, it is important to remember one crucial rule. You should choose work that you like. Personal taste is a big part of buying art. Loving an artwork is especially important if you will be cohabiting with it in your home for many years to come. If you are not sure of what you like, the best way to develop as an art buyer is to view lots of works.
