    the first rule of collecting. Get what you love. The second rule is best to get important artists while loving the piece, if you can afford them. I did that 20 years ago staring with Salvador Dali, an artist addition lithograph, hand-signed. My next purchase was a Pablo Picasso etching, one of 50 hand-signed. next was a Miro lithograph also hand-signed. The latest are two wonderful pieces by Marc Chagall, which are my favorites and least expensive. Kind of tells you money is not everything when it comes to a piece of art you fall in love with.

      Because if you are smart and open minded art can be obtained for two late night Wendy's combo meals. As an Artist I believe the price of most of this art is in the convenience of the art accessibility. With first the artist must be discovered, then the artist must be approachable, then the artist must be reliable. The artist must be able to make business deals with a dealer… All this has monitory value to the rich. There is fantastic art all over; the Rich look for a gallery or a dealer in art, the poor or the working class should look for the artist or a region of artists in their town or city.
      $40 can go a long way with a starving artist. And without that $40 that artist may decide to become a bus driver or full time bank teller for life giving up on a career of art.
      True artist make art for you, but they want you to go and get it … Anyone that would tell me that they would “Take care of” my art would melt my heart and that type of talk means as much as money to an artist.

      Maybe because art doesn’t equal money. Just because you can’t take it home with you doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy it.

      @@donemigholzjr.7344 Perfect response. Especially for someone like me, who is a very very beginning collector, a bit frightened to spend too much on a piece, but also a bit unconcerned about an artist's name and more concerned with the painting, the subject matter, and the quality of the painting. That's great advice.

      @@donemigholzjr.7344That s right. To buy art from a local artist is givin a chance to him or her, to know something more outside the art monpoly, to build an own taste, and to make grow your art community, so your culture community too.

      David, as a lifelong artist, and now collected by museums, you said it so beautifully. I am sick to high heavens of the interminable b-s spoken by so many (if not most!) of the talking heads surrounding art and art collections, not to mention critics. After many decades, I still cringe at those times at university when I was forcibly subjected to hearing this and that visiting artist or critic, or those times when required to go upstairs at such venues as the Museum of Fine Art, when what I wanted to do most was to stand up and demonstrably WALK OUT! Oh, how I wish I had! I will not name the names, so I will not specifically mention such names as Brice Marden and others long forgotten. But I was too inhibited by the circumstances, and out of politeness, to stand up and reveal how I really felt. Sadly, so much in the art world and the publications and events surrounding it is really complete and total b-s. And there is no telling them this, because they will never admit that THEY are the cause of all the problems and nonsense! I appreciate your comment.

They do it for MONEY, not for charity.

    This is all BS. Once the owner donates a painting to a museum so ""others can enjoy the piece as much as they did for years"", they (the donators) claim a charitable income tax deduction equal to the work's current fair market value. Saving themselves millons of dollars in taxes a year. Which tends to be just one of the reasons why they bought the piece in the first place years ago.
