Who We Are and Our Philosophy
Painting, drawing, sculpture and the print making processes are forms of communication in a two and three dimensions. Like the written language, a statement made by the artist can be interpreted in many ways. Spoken words can mean the opposite of their written meaning, with an added inflection. How we view art is our personal interpretation influenced by our heritage, our experiences and our imagination. How we feel about art is all in the eye of the beholder.
When considering the value of a piece of artwork, many people consider what it will be worth tomorrow. It is wise to consider what works by particular artists have brought in the past, for this shows us the opinion of other dealers and collectors. This consideration gives us some security, but then there are some works that out shine any others that have been on the market before, and these must be considered in a different light. If you are concerned about overspending, relax it has been shown that the prices will catch up and exceed todays prices for money can be mad and replaced, original artwork cannot. What you spend on artwork must be based on what it is worth to you today. Buy what you like. Do not buy art as an investment because you think it will be worth something tomorrow.
