When buying art ...
"... When you are buying from an independent artist, you are
buying more than just a painting, a novel or a song. You are buying hundreds of hours of experimentation and
thousands of failures. You are
buying days, months, years of frustration and moments of pure joy. You are buying nights of worry about
paying the rent, having enough money to to eat, having enough money to feed the
children, the birds, the dog. You aren’t buying a thing, you are buying a piece
of heart, a part of a soul, a private moment in someone’s life. Most importantly, you are buying that
artist more time to do something they are truly passionate about; something
that makes all the above worth the fear and doubt; something that puts life
into the living..."
