Having a look around our living area right now, our artwork is a combo of things that were gifted or bought from very creative friends, some pieces of special artwork from our children's early years. Plus a few photos.
ReplyDeleteHaving said that, we've just purchased some vintage surfing posters to go in a specific spot.
So, most of the art that we've added in the last 10 years or so is art that we're connected to in some way- through the artist - if that makes sense.
Then we would generally only go online if we're looking for something specific
DeleteIt makes perfect sense. I only ever purchase art that I feel an emotional connection to in some way. Love that you have artwork from your children.
Delete1. yup
ReplyDelete2. n/a
3. all over the board really.
4. quite a mix.
5. that also ranges. i am willing to pay more for art that really speaks to me.
6. mostly i but art on impulse in the sense that i rarely specifically look for it. when i see something that i connect with, i consider a purchase.
7. no, although most of what i have purchased would be considered small in size.
8. both.
9. again, all over the place. some of the art i have bought is nature/organic/vintage in color palette, some is quite bright, and many are metallic in color (and often material)
10. these are great questions :-)
Hi Kathryn --
ReplyDeleteIn a nutshell, most of our "art" are a few photos I have taken that I had enlarged and framed. Others are a hodge-podge of vintage items I've found at thrifts. I don't believe I've ever purchased any art online. Hope this helps.
I prefer looking & touching the art pieces I like ~ Just not comfortable with buying art online ~ My tastes are varied though, so I don't have a particular style ~
ReplyDeleteDo you purchase art online?
ReplyDeletei havent yet but think i would
If 'no' is there a reason why?
just not been really thinking about it
If 'yes' what type of art do you tend to gravitate towards?
i love watercolor and abstract paintings but there is a wide range of styles i like too
Is the art in your own home a similar mix or of different styles?
it's a mix
How much would you ordinarily spend and what is your maximum budget?
always depends on certain things
What influences your decision to buy?
if i really like the piece the price of course has an influence then
Do you shop with a specific size in mind?
no except i need sth. for a specific spot
Do you purchase art for yourself, as gifts for friends and family or both?
done both
What colors to you find yourself drawn to?
nature colors
Is there any other information you would like to share?
good morning... just about to get my first cup of coffee..smiles
I have two pieces of art I purchased in person. One in Market Square, Savannah, Georgia by Alex Baptiste and the other in Hot Springs, Arkansas. My plan was to documents vacations with art. Money got in my way.
ReplyDeleteThere is no specific color that calls me. It has to be the painting as a whole.
I never buy as gifts since I can not know someone's heart that well. I have a mixed batch here. If I need a space filled I usually just throw something together myself.
I do like this piece above. I love the color, the texture.
