<p>[QUOTE="Mark London, post: 338866, member: 346"]The sad fact is that despite the fantasy that art is a great investment the reality is that most art decreases to almost nothing over time. There is nothing wrong with supporting an artist and/or gallery and buying works of art that you enjoy on a daily basis. You just have to accept the fact that much like an expensive sofa, or even a car for that matter, most paintings are pretty much worthless after 20 or 30 years. There is a reason that original oil paintings can be bought at Goodwill for almost nothing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
