Art is about emotion; the artist’s emotion, yes, but the emotion of the viewer/buyer is just as important!
To buy art, you have to feel and listen to what it is telling you. How it makes you feel. Do you want to explore that emotion? Do you want to spend time discovering new parts in the art that talk to you? Does your emotion and reaction vary according to your mood of the day, time of the day, colour of the light falling on it or the energy of the room where you choose to hang it? Or, does it change the energy of how you feel or how the room feels?
It is about getting involved with the art and how it makes you feel. It is not about the colour scheme of the your house or room, but the emotional response you have. Above all else, it mustn’t bore you! You must not be able to give it one look and then you have seen it. No, you must want to go back again and again. You must want to explore how different colours, textures, shapes and lines affect or interest you.
Choose art that feeds you and carries the energy that talks to you
Below are two paintings I did with very different energy, the one calm and peaceful and the other full of energy and movement. Different paintings will appeal to different people, it is about choosing what speaks to you.
