[QUOTE="Armando0831, post: 33373, member: 305"]I do appreciate your comments. I guess with all this overtime I'm getting, it wouldn't hurt to buy a few books. I know, I really need to go to some museums and galleries. Hang on, I'm doing exactly what I WAS doing with my baseball card collection. I would buy a boxes upon boxes and only find a few that were worth a dang. After blowing all sorts of money on a ton of cards, I finally realized one day that I had more JUNK cards than ones that worth money. I woke up and realized that I'm mainly interested in Mantles,Aaron's,Ruth, so on and so forth. I stopped buying boxes of random cards and saved the money till I had enough to get that Babe Ruth card I always wanted. I believe that's the same method I need here on collecting art. Find a particular artist or two and concentrate on just their works. Study and know what mediums the use, canvas, board or whatever. Study what technique they used, etc. It would eliminate a lot of art being collected, but would ensure proper purchases on the artist in which I've chosen to study about.[/QUOTE]
