It's my belief that every painting that is purchased has something about it that personally connects with the buyer. The connection creates a distinctive reaction that is personal and unique. The experience is often one of calmness, introspection and reflection provided by a combination of past experiences, values, beliefs, relationships and one's sense of beauty. Most often when you purchase an original painting it has elicited some emotional experience and/or meaning to you.
Monetary Value vs. Personal Value. There is never a guarantee that the artwork you purchase will increase in value beyond the same price you originally paid for them. So don’t buy art with a belief that its value will increase. The personal value to you as an owner of an original painting is that you own a one-of-a-kind, handmade original piece of art that has a higher quality and value than a print. This quality brings richness and personality to a home or office, rather than a print or poster just to fill space.
Original Paintings in your home can provide a feeling of pride of ownership as well as refresh your spirit. Looking at an original painting can be a gift of daily inspiration. Your original painting(s) may increase in value over time as well. If not, then you've had the personal enjoyment of ownership and sharing your painting(s) with your family and friends.
