Art Buying Guide | How to Choose and Buy Without Making a Mistake Even for Beginners

Why are more people buying art now?

In recent years, the number of people purchasing art online has been increasing. Behind this is the growing need to "make your home more personal" and "add individuality to your interior." In particular, one of the attractions of purchasing art is the special feeling of being able to get your hands on a one-of-a-kind piece.


Three points to consider before choosing art

1. Decide where to display it

The first thing you need to think about is "where to hang it." The atmosphere and size of the artwork you choose will change depending on where it will be displayed, such as the living room, entrance, or bedroom.

2. Know your favorite tastes and genres

Abstract art, photography, minimalism, pop art... Find a genre that suits your tastes. By learning about the artist's worldview and background, you will be able to empathize with the work more deeply.

3. Set a budget

Art can range from prints costing several thousand yen to originals costing hundreds of thousands of yen. Deciding your budget range in advance will make it easier to choose.


How to Buy Art | Steps for Buying Online

STEP 1. Find a work

Online galleries like ART&DAY allow you to narrow down your search by genre, color, size, etc. First, save the artwork you like to your favorites.

STEP 2. Check the artist information

Before purchasing, we recommend checking the artist's profile and the background of the work. Knowing the background of the work will help you appreciate it more.

STEP 3. Check the size and price

Check that it will fit your space and that you are happy with the delivery method and price before adding it to your cart.

STEP 4. Buy with confidence

Once payment is complete, all you have to do is wait for your item to arrive. ART & DAY also offers options for delivery directly from the artist or with a carefully selected frame.


Recommended works for first-time art buyers

For beginners, we recommend "works that you are drawn to intuitively." Rather than relying on technique or knowledge, it is important to believe in what you "like." Just adding art to your life can make your days a little richer.


Summary | Buying art should be more flexible

You don't need any qualifications or knowledge to buy art. Just getting a piece of art that you like can change your everyday life. Why not try adding a special piece to your space?
