Some people buy paintings that are masterpieces of technique.

Other people buy paintings because they are simply but hauntingly beautiful.

Still other people buy paintings because the artist is their friend.

Yet other people buy paintings because, while they do not know the artist personally, the artist has an interesting life history and character.

And there are other people who buy paintings because they need to decorate their walls.

In all of these cases, as long as the paintings were executed well with professional-grade materials, they will accrue in value over time like jewelry.

All good paintings are born equal, because they are illustrations of Creation.
