Acquiring Art

 When I see it I know I have to acquire it. It's a definite must have for me!

I appreciate all sorts of art but when it comes to have and behold I have to consider will I give it a proper home. Will I be able to take care of it. Kinda like adopting a pet. Does it bring a smile to my face every time I look at it. These are my requirements for acquiring.

I don't know what makes people go from admiring to to acquiring. It's a fine line and I can appreciate that as an artist. Some consider the future value and status of fine art but I wouldn't waste my time on something I don't love at first sight.

Here's just a few of my recent acquisitions, some were gifts as well. They all make me smile and just wanted to share. Hope you enjoy collecting art as much as artists enjoy making it.

The stories behind these pieces of artwork are varied and personal which makes them all the more special.
