The purchase of abstract paintings
Buying and collecting abstract painting can be a labor of love. I like abstract paintings. I think my favorite is medium-gouache. I recently purchased a work of Oscar Bluemner. The person who bought the abstract painting that had been in storage for more than twenty years. I’m going to hang this piece in my office.
I have found an abstract oil painting that was dated 1947 that was painted by Louis Siegriest Bassi. I liked the composition, in his view, strangely soft. The artist signed the back of the painting. It is a bit out of my price range, but I bought it anyway.
Trade Winds is the name of an abstract painting that I bought from the artist Joanne Riddle while I was in Connecticut. The piece was huge and I had to have it shipped by freight to my house. The blue paint was so vivid. The entire composition is absolutely inspired.
I bought a painting abstract to my sister-in-law last year. The artist of the piece was Leonardo Nierman and that the means used was oil. I bought the piece UNFRAMED and took my sister-in-law to choose the frame to frame.
I tried to buy an abstract painting by the mayor of our city. I offered him two thousand dollars for the modernist abstract graphic colors. The artist uses red, white and blue and I wanted to buy this for my stepmother. She would have loved, but the mayor was unwilling to part with him.
My mother has decorated her home in a style he liked to Santa Fe. I bought a large abstract painting for her from her favorite artist, Lou Monti. She has seen her work in a number of houses and always raves about them. She was so happy when he saw the painting I bought for her hanging on the wall of his living room.
I once dated a guy who had signed an abstract painting by Robert Gilbjerg in its wall. I saw something different each time they saw him. That the painting had an attraction that I just can not quite explain. He was always buying and changing art abstract paintings on its walls, but this particular piece always remained. I suppose he felt attracted to it as well.
The abstract painting that I bought for my older brother has not worked in his apartment. I ended up buying a painting that was a little too big for the room was intended. The colors did not work in the only room that worked for their size.
I finished the sale of abstract painting to the same place that I had bought, on eBay! I ended up making a profit on the abstract painting. There was more at auction on the artist, Richard Diebenkorn, who had been in the auction that I won. I think the extra hour of the investigation that he spent the abstract painting’s value increases.
I learned long ago that an abstract painting is worth exactly as much as someone who is willing to pay for it. I have friends who can not be convinced of this basic truth. I think if anybody wants an abstract painting, then it is worth nothing.
My brother used the money from the sale of unwanted abstract painting to find himself another abstract painting. The term with an abstract collage that was made in late 1930. I liked when I saw him and it worked wonderfully in his office.
