I dont see how art can be an "investment" unless its a big time painter or an emerging great artist. Now if you buy it because you love it thatsdifferent but an investment naa

You can get some really nice looking pieces for less than $50.
yea...I mean, the auction I went to last night was my no means trendy (no gallery with hardwood floors and dark corners) but I think art galleries could possibly be my thing. How do you find out about art gallery openings and what not....is that something I could just "google" in my local city (Dallas)
You could always google stuff like that. Most major art shows are posted on websites and things like that.

However, to get to some of the smaller artists, you'll have to be somewhat in the art scene. Just go anywhere that you know of for right now, and askpeople about other shows happening in the area. It's not that hard, and you'll make new friends. Facebook is a great place to look as well.
 
We have a lot of art on our walls at home .

I picked all of them out too ...

so you answered your own question--awesome.

facebook, you say? Aiight, I'mma def check it out.
 
Not to sound too AYO, but when it comes to buying a house, the part I really look forward to is buying some really dope art to set off everything else... Ithink of myself as kind of like a Renaissance man, so art, photography, etc really appeals to me...
 
I got a bachelors in arts and took like 15 credits of art history... Art is definitely appreciated
 
i'm a minimalist, i naturally like that style of art. contemporary pieces, simplistic, but i won't start buying until i get a condo.
 
Well, Here's some of my work, I have much more floating around (most have sold) but here are a few.
 
You are definitely not alone. I plan to make most of my own artwork for my house since im a ceramics major. Im also into printmaking so I can produce some niceprints. I definitely keep an eye out for other artwork.

Id like to see some other nt artists work maybe im interested in buying. PM me. I want to support other artists as well.

I like some art as well. I only have one piece (paid $50) at a exhibition they had at my mall from local artist. ill post later.
 
buying art is nice and all but I don't see how it has anything to do with being 'grown.' buying life insurance, a house, a mutual fund, and othersuch boring things seem more along the lines of what 'grown' people do
 
I'm a fan of the arts.

Had a ceramic class this semester. Not really into paintings, etc., but will start going to the museums.
