Paintings, Portraits, Prints, Engravings, Drawings and Watercolours.
Collecting any kind of art is dependent on several criteria: knowledge of the artist, an interest in their work, how much of their work comes up for auction and frequency. For most of us, cost is a prime factor, but, it's also important that you LIKE the pictures you choose!
Much can be learned about artists and the various forms of visual art by visits to galleries, museums, private collections, dealers and auctions. Books abound with detailed pictures of artwork from around the world and artists biographies.
For art collectors, English watercolour remains highly prized, as British artists have become much admired both at home and abroad.
Many paintings and watercolours take on extraordinary significance to family members and collecting work that you like is incredibly rewarding.
