Description
For many design professionals, the task of purchasing artwork for clients or advising them on their own purchases is challenging. Andrea Bogart of Embrace Creatives says she’s a matchmaker who pairs designers with reliable, professional artists—keeping projects on track and on budget.
In this episode we learn:
- a clear understanding of what’s considered quality workmanship, so you don’t get stuck with an inferior product
- quality begins with highly professional artists, so make sure the online art source has professional documentation
- with paper/printmaking, ensure stray pieces of backing are cut off neatly and watch for small white patches where the ink has not been evenly applied
- with fiber/textile artwork, check for even tension throughout the weaving (zoom with the dealer and ask them to hold the item up to various light)
- with paintings, ask about varnishing and avoid placing in full sun or near heat registers
- with paintings, avoid wrinkles and puckers ask to see the corners
It’s time to take control of your business.
