Why buy a painting? Find out ten reasons to own a painting!

Why buy a painting? Have you ever thought of this question? It’s a common query when we think of this creative field. While there could be many answers, this blog gives my top ten answers to why buy a painting.

Ten reasons to buy a painting:

• You own a piece of creativity, an art that not just decorates your home but can evoke a myriad of emotions. Painting can give a cosy environment to your home; a relaxed and focused mind at workplace; a calming effect in health centers and so on.

• A painting instantly changes the mood of your space. It stands for beauty, elegance, joy, a unique message, celebration of life in general or whatever the artist wants it to stand for!

• Paintings of different sizes and different moods can set the atmosphere for different rooms of your house/work space.

• If your day was not that good and you come back to a home with your favorite painting; just a look at that painting can have a calming effect on you.

• If you own an original hand painted art piece; be assured that only you own that masterpiece on which the artist actually worked upon.  You have an inspiration in the form of painting to achieve that excellence in your field.

• The painting will be a source of joy and wonder not just for you but also for all the visitors in your house.

• Your house/office/work space needs a painting for that perfect interior decoration.

• A painting can instantly brighten up an otherwise dull space.

• Your painting is not just another decoration item. You know that it’s a treasure.

• Lastly, an original painting is also an investment. So, next time think of taking the off route of investing in art & collectibles rather than traditional forms of investing.
