COLLECTOR OF ART

First time buyers of art need not necessarily be collectors of Art. But you can gradually becone an 'Art Collector' as you buy more and more paintings. This helps you to learn more about paintings, and get an insight of what is all the hype about paintings.
It is advisable for first time buyers (wanting to become good collectors ot Art) to buy paintings that are not too expensive at first. This minimises the risk factor. Decisions should be based on likability and rate- in that order.
Likability - A painting that you like will always keep you saisfied even if you come to know later that the painting may not necessarily be valuable. --At least you bought it to satisfy yourself. Trust yourself first.
Rate - It is advisable to buy paintings that are of a reasonable rate on the higher side. Very cheap paintings are priced for the value that they represent. But make sure that they are not too ex pensive either.
