Brightscapes: The Way To Beauty
Where Can I Find Art? A good place to start is online. Especially if you're not sure what you're looking for. Randomly visit pages on Etsy.com, SaatchiArt.com, Sothebys.com, and even Craigslist.com to see what artists are making. You may not find what you are looking for, but you may discover the styles and subjects you want. And that's a great step forward.
Social media can be a wonderful tool for finding and purchasing artwork too. If you find an artist you like, you should follow them on Facebook, Reddit, Pinterest, LinkedIn, or any other places you have in common. Many artists will share their latest pieces, upcoming shows, or give insights into their work.
While New York City, Paris, and London are famous for their galleries, many towns have galleries of their own with a range of local and international artists. Art festivals and craft fairs are popular annual events that can sometimes travel around the country. Many artists have studios that are open to the public. Shows, events, and studios are great places to visit when you're on vacation too.
It's also important just to keep your eyes open when going around town. Does the cafe where you get your coffee in the morning have pieces for sale on the walls? What are those paintings in the garage sale or thrift store? Does the pieces in your favorite restaurant have price tags on them? Interesting artwork can show up in unique places. And the more unique, the better the story usually is.
