How to start an art collection with expert advice from Georgia Spray

Good art should be for all, and you shouldn’t need millions to collect it. What prevents so many from owning art often amounts to antiquated hang-ups around thinking art collecting is only for a select few — that you need to know about the art market to do it or you need to travel to galleries and spend a fortune to own it. Wrong.

What you really need is confidence — confidence in your own taste and your own choices. This is easier said than done, but read on. You too can build a deeply personal art collection rooted in the idea of all things emerging — emerging artists, emerging collectors (that’s you), and hopefully, as a result, an emerging sense of self.
