Buy Abstract Painting

Buying and collecting abstract painting can be a labor of love. I like abstract paintings. I think my favorite medium is gouache. I recently purchased a work of Oscar Bluemner. The person I bought the abstract painting from had it in storage for over twenty years. I'm going to hang this piece in my office.

I found an oil abstract painting that was dated 1947, which was painted by Louis Bassi Siegriest. I liked the composition, it felt oddly soothing. The artist signed the back of the painting. It was a little out of my price range, but I bought it anyway.

Trade Winds is the name of an abstract painting I bought from the artist Joanne Riddle when I was in Connecticut. The room was huge and I had to be sent by freight to my home. The blue paint was so strong. The whole composition was absolutely inspired.

I bought an abstract painting for my sister-in-law last year. The artist of the piece was Leonardo Nierman and environment that he used was oil. I bought the piece unframed and took my sister-in-law to the framer to choose the frame.

I tried to buy an abstract painting of the mayor of our city. I offered him two thousand dollars for the modernist abstract colorful figure. The artist used red, white and blue and I wanted to buy this for my stepmother. She would have loved, but the mayor did not want to part with it.

My mother has decorated her house in a style she liked in Santa Fe. I bought a large abstract painting for her favorite artist, Lou Monti. She saw her work in a number of homes and always raves about them. She was so happy when she saw the painting I bought for her hanging on the wall of his living room.

I dated a guy once who had a signed abstract painting by Robert Gilberg on his wall. I saw something different every time I saw him. This painting had an attraction that I can not explain everything. He was always buying art and the evolution of abstract paintings on its walls, but this particular piece always stayed. I guess he was attracted to it as well.

Abstract painting I bought for my older brother did not work in his apartment. I ended up buying a painting that was a little too big for the room it was intended. The colors do not work in the only room that worked for its size.

I ended up selling that abstract painting the same place I had bought on eBay! I ended up making a profit on the abstract painting. There was more information in my auction about the artist, Richard Diebenkorn, than there were in the auction that I won. I think the extra hour of research, I had increased the value of abstract painting.

I learned long ago that an abstract painting is worth exactly as much as someone is willing to pay for it. I have friends who simply can not be convinced of this fundamental truth. I think if no one wants an abstract painting in particular, then it is worthless.

My brother used the money from the sale of the unwanted abstract painting to find himself another abstract painting. He finished with an abstract collage that was made in 1930. I liked it when I saw it and it worked beautifully in his office.
