It is commonplace to hear people talking about buying art as a 
financial commitment, but should this be the true reason we buy art? Big auction houses and bigger galleries encourage this particular kind of thinking because it will help them to sell art to the upper crust of contemporary society. They treat art more like a investment than what it truly is, which is loveliness to be enjoyed by anyone.
The fact of the matter is, there are more artists and works of art than there are spaces on a gallery wall. This means that the galleries have to be very picky about the works they take in, because they are in the business of making money by representing artists whose work will sell quickly.

I was surprised when a friend at college said to me, “I envy you. As an artist you see beauty in everything”. Until then I had not realized that we don’t all see the same thing and that my talent was not just a propensity to create but also a unique way of appreciating what I saw.
It is not just the view, scenery or objects that matter but how, as an artist I am able to perceive and interpret them. I see things that are uplifting and inspiring to me and I capture my vision in my paintings from the subjects I feel a deep connection with.
My paintings shine a spotlight on the beauty of God’s palette that I see and I am always pushing myself to hone and evolve my artistic skills to create art that is fresh, original and a genuine expression of my personal view and connection with my beautiful surroundings.
You can find me and my paintings every Sunday from 8am to 1pm at the Siesta Key Farmers Market in the Village at 5104 Ocean Blvd. Siesta Key, Florida. Come by and say hello. My paintings are shipped FREE to the lower US 48 and Canada.
Coastal Wall Decor Ideas

No matter what kind of day a person has had, walking into a room with a coastal tropical wall decor will most definitely make the person’s day better. This is why decorating a room with a tropical twist is such a good idea.
What makes it an even better idea is the cost at which this redecorating can be accomplished with affordable oil paintings or digital products by Lloyd Dobson Artist. Anyone can find the prices that are right for him or her.
Beginning with the walls, there are several options an individual
can choose between to create the tropical feel of their dreams. As an example, with wall hangings, tapestries, and paintings, the mood and color scheme will be set creating a relaxing fall-asleep-on-the-beach feel or energizing seize-the-day atmosphere.

Many of these great pieces have themes of amazing island landscapes with silhouetted palm trees. Who can feel stressed with that kind of relaxation?
Many people think that galleries for original art and wall decor is the best place to shop for these sorts of decorations, but the galleries are usually expensive because the gallery must make a profit above the artist’s price. Buying direct from the artist will certainly save you money and be easy on your budget.
Follow this simple step-by-step guide to create a beautiful coastal tropical home that reflects your taste and personality:
1) Choose your design style:
Do it properly! Spend time researching the styles that you like and find out what they are categorized as. This will help you to search for the decorations that create the complete package for your rooms.
2) Choose your color pallet:
Just because your home is by the coast does not mean that you are limited to white, blues and pastel shades. However, do consider the fact that a light and airy space with maximize the benefits of living in such a location.
3) Creating a relaxed and laid back atmosphere:
Chose furniture that is practical as well as design driven; for example a comfortable bed or sofa, ensure you have enough storage for your needs and think about temperature and protection from the elements for both the heat and the cold. Use fireplaces, candles and strategic lighting to stimulate the senses. Think about the smells and sounds you associate with the atmosphere you are trying to generate as well as the touch and sight.
4) Bring the outside in.
Especially if you have a good view from your windows, you need to bring as much of it into the home as possible to maximise the importance you give to living in such a location. After all it is often this element that dictates the worth of a coastal property, so make sure you get your monies worth!
So whatever your preferred design style, follow these simple principles and you can create the light, airy, relaxed ambience of a coastal home whilst also injecting your personality.
Once the wall is painted and there are wall decor hangings or 
paintings of the coastal tropical environment you desire, the lighting should be discussed. Lighting will help to work with the paint and decorations in making the right relaxation feel. The lighting could be aimed to represent sunset, sunrise, midday, or midnight.
People too often forget that they have the option of coastal tropical decor when they go to redecorate a room. Bringing the tropics into the living room, bathroom, guestroom or bedroom will really accentuate feelings of relaxation.

You flung your suitcases on the floor and cracked the 2 euro bottle of vino you picked up stared out the window until it was gone.
