Reply to comment by Skittles_the_Unicorn in LPT: When buying art from an unknown or obscure artist, choose it because you love it, not as an investment, because odds are you will never be able to resell it for near what you paid for it. by latchkey_adult
It's certainly closely associated with the clientele. My parents love going to artwalk type events in a wealthy area of Palm Springs, CA. Some local granny doing paintings and charging $3000 doesn't even raise an eyebrow. That same painting wouldn't even sell for $50 at Goodwill in a major city.

Yeah my friend was an artist in the NY/NJ area. Been to a few shows. The shiit ppl sell for ridiculous prices is not only astonishing but insulting in some cases. Lol
