Good Reasons to Buy an Abstract Painting

Abstract paintings are popular, but they are often not understood. Let's try to give "rational" reasons to entice those who are sceptical.

The descriptive paintings, the landscapes, the flowery fields are understood, appreciated and purchased. But when it comes to buying an abstract subject, sometimes you get into a crisis. Always with the premise that abstract art is no less than figurative - the history of art teaches us this - let's try to understand how to insert a painting that has "taken your heart" and place it as a piece of furniture in your home.

Abstract does not mean unthought

An abstract painting can transfer emotions and "capture" just like a symbolic one, a landscape or a portrait, but not everyone feels ready to exhibit it in their own home.

Let us strive to understand better the pictorial expressions of famous and less famous artists who can give that extra touch to an otherwise anonymous environment.

Get to know the artist

Understanding the Abstract artist London, their soul, their message is essential for anyone who buys a piece of art.

This is why, in addition to telling the most visible part of the painting, the materials used, the choice of tools and techniques used, a global vision of the work is exciting and valuable to go deeper. Knowing the most intimate part of the author, the emotions expressed in that pictorial moment, the reason why his choice fell on a specific colour, and that type of stroke will allow you to get more in tune with the Abstract artist London and the message—transmitted on the canvas.

Both for those who feel a bit artist inside and for those who do not love art, do not appreciate it or even suffer it (because forced by the partner or roommate to participate in the choice) to know a particularity of the author, an anecdote, a special place from which he draws inspiration, a type of material that only he has experienced, will make people appreciate even more the painting you are about to take home and could even spark the attention of the least creative and most sceptical person in the world.

Follow your instinct

You may find the combination of colours and shades of a painting beautiful, but you don't see anything else in it. After knowing, reading or listening to the logical, historical or emotional path for which the author arrived at that type of representation, you cannot share it.

It doesn't matter if you see anything else; what matters is that you like it and would like it in your living room to make you feel good, represent you, and communicate something to you.

Choose the right frame

A-frame in contrast with the painting, with a nice passe-partout, will make the piece of art "more classic", therefore more attractive even for those who do not love abstract art.

There is indeed an infinite range of solutions that you can find at wholesale framers, but also in DIY stores. Trying to combine the purchased work with samples of passe-partout and frames will help you identify the most appropriate combination and enhance your purchase.

Fall in love (at least a little)

Whether it is the latest street artist or a young emerging in a small gallery, it doesn't matter: it must be love at first sight. If you are hit, and some emotion is triggered, it means that that painting has hit the right "strings". It is a bit like a call that is hard not to listen to.
