Art Collectors

Browsing

Mostly when I come across people who appreciate art and creativity, and not only that they also have an inclination towards having a collection of original artworks and paintings be it in their homes, offices, or personal galleries, they seem to have a confusion regarding the concept of artworks they would want to explore or the kind of figures/symbols that their mind is more attracted towards.

They might also have an idea or words to describe their taste but mostly due to a lack of self-reflection in this regard they fail to optimize their collection and buy the artworks that don’t go well according to the theme they have in mind.

Before digging deeper to unravel your taste in art, let’s understand how people collect art or even start their journey as art collectors and why should you too, if you don’t do it already.

The following steps are the most apparent ways generally people with not much knowledge about art but the only thing, that is love and curiosity about it start their journey as art collectors

  • To Decorate their walls

This is the most common way people start with the collection. In order to beautify their surroundings or the place they live or spend the most time at, like offices, they want to keep something that is symbolic of positivity and good vibes, and also adds to the whole ambiance.

  • The hidden personality comes to play-

Slowly as time passes by, they feel more connected with the paintings, and the mind wanders to produce random theories to satisfy its need to unravel the mystery that went behind the making of the painting. If it’s a spiritually realistic painting they will start feeling the connection with their inner self and a connection with the universe. Or if they are having a painting displaying some historical scene, they might develop some empathy towards the whole scenario in the painting.

Mostly these instances of a connection with a painting happen only when you spend some time with it.

  • Their own story unfolds in their souls-

So when they discover the inner side of them or certain emotions with the painting, they start contemplating their past and story of life. They go through those emotions predominantly that the artist wanted to convey in the painting.

  • They become better communicators of their emotions apparently-

Being able to understand your thoughts and way of being, you are not only spiritually connected but also fulfilling the most basic intent of creativity. When you are able to tell your side of the situation to people, you are nothing but grateful for having got the opportunity to spend some time thinking over the intention behind the art.

You become more attached to the idea of having these kinds of artworks to explore deeper sides of yourself, after all, life is all about exploring.

  • Then you are on your quest to search for more similar paintings-

You are thrilled with the idea of exploring your inner self, your heart takes you to places like exhibitions, online art surfing, or art magazines wherever you can find something that can click you in an instant.

  • You like the idea of collecting all these to not only preserve them as your history but also pass it on as your legacy-

Owning an artwork means you are capturing something meant for others to be seen, understood, and appreciated, and that is how you are preserving history at your end. You will not only pass it on as your legacy but also help them realize their depths through it.

This is the way most people start collecting artworks and realize their love for creative talents and artists. They also bond with artists to know their side of the stories and thoughts that went behind the making of their art and also, they become a part of the community they share similar thoughts with.

But the journey to collecting artworks becomes more fun and interesting when you find your taste and preferences.

Let’s talk about how that is done-

  • Mostly it starts when you increase the purview of creativity shown to you. You should be able to access as much art as you can.

Finding the right Art

Don’t miss a chance to visit exhibitions, online or offline, visit museums, or meet artists. Go on galleries online too to see what the creative world has got to offer you.

As it is rightly said, “enjoy the journey as much as the destination” this phase of your search would be really enjoyable and helpful for you later in life too when your thought processes change with time, you’d know which form of art now you’d look forward too.

  • It is really suggested that you should always keep journaling your thoughts and actions. And why so? Because you understand yourself more 😊

The journey to finding your taste in art starts from within you.

After all, knowing yourself is where all the wisdom starts from. The key is to remain patient with yourself, talk to the artists, and dig deeper into your own self. ‘

The best part of being an art collector is the way you start unraveling different layers of yourself to reach the depth of your soul.

  • When you actually start materializing your thoughts by purchasing and collecting relevant artworks for yourself, start archiving them too and let them reflect a piece of your past.

Because we all grow with time, changes take place, and hence let them capture your moments and be the souvenir of your past.

Going back to your collection after a few years you would feel so proud of your journey.

I believe looking back into the past, smiling at it, and being proud of the person you are today, art has the power to all that to you when you build a collection like that for yourself.

  • Sometimes on your beautiful journey to life, there are a lot of down moments too. My personal suggestion would be to not start accumulating any artwork that shows or projects your emptiness or low points in life because the time will change but those artworks stay over there and may manifest those realities more into your life. After all, it is true what you see is what you become.

Collection of Art

While artworks do reflect your inner self, try buying more happy artworks even when you’re sad. Don’t worry they still have the capacity to remind you of your journey when you look back on it, so you don’t need something that is absolutely relevant to your feelings.

Their aesthetics and feel-factor, and whether they convey hope, happiness and joy are more important too. You don’t want your friends and family to see through it daily because you’re feeling like that 😉

Thankfully on our website, you can contact us and send a mail to us, where we can suggest to you, some artworks based on your taste and thoughts, not just that, you can also get customized artwork made according to your thoughts.

  • There is always a possibility for growth in certain fields. You might want to study more about a certain field like philosophy or history, culture or maybe just spirituality, astronomy or astrology and what not.

You would love to explore the characteristics of this field and also might want to buy those relevant artworks to show your interest in this to people who come and visit you.

This journey of exploring never ends, and that’s why being an art collector is a process to know yourself more, it’s a spiritual journey some may say, and for others, it is just a way to reflect on your likes and thoughts, whatever it may be called, it is an endless journey. And so much fun too!

With all that being said, why don’t you explore some artworks now! 😊
