What You Should Buy

This again depends on you... I've had clients march

into the gallery with the intention of purchasing an original

by an artist and yet purchase a reproduction instead,

because the image on the reproduction was the one they felt

strongest about and the original had been sold.

If you are buying art and are more interested in the

financial value than anything else, buy the original. If not

then buy what you love, original or reproduction. But for

what it's worth I'll give you my take on what to buy.

The two top Medias I personally like, as far as

reproductions go, are serigraphy and Giclea. I feel these

media draw aesthetically close to the original painting. I

don't have a crystal ball, but I think, as time goes

forward serigraphy will be priced higher and higher as it

becomes less and less available and the demand for Giclées

will continue to rise. Therefore, the rarity of serigraphy will

probably make it a higher value; while the popularity of

Giclées makes them a most desired media.
