After my post the other day I started to think about my own legacy. But I also started to think about which artists I would like to have an original artwork from in my 'Dream Collection.
Now many of these artists, original works are already in the hundred's of thousands if not millions of dollars in value. But some of them you can still pick up original artworks at reasonable prices, and you can always buy signed limited editions of each for realistic prices.
Also for many of the photographers there are amazing limited edition signed books that are available for purchase and collecting, although I think any of those books would be kept out of reach of small furry beagles!
So I have assembled a list of Artists (in no particular order) and a small smattering of each of their works. The images here are not meant to be the actual artworks I like, more a representation of their works.
