People sometimes don’t think art is for them. They will put pictures of the family on the wall and other things but not art from a gallery.
I am so sad if that happens as it is a great experience to go pick out art from a gallery and put it up. Nowdays galleries have all kinds of payment programs that make it possible for everyone to have a piece or two.
Let me tell you what happens when you pick out a special piece. You get in touch with what your style is and that believe it or not will affect a lot of other aspects of your life. First of all you will begin to see that style all over( just like when you get a new car) You will identify with that as your style and own it. What I mean by that is you will subconsciously absorb it into what else you like. Then it will change your brain to seek out patterns that you relate to the first one. You will grow in your capacity to see better. Art has the power to make you think about things that you may have forgotten.
I think it would be a great idea to have an art lending library so anyone could at least have some for a time and get what they can out of it.
Some things are too good to keep just for a few people.
