Collecting art is about learning to see.
My mother made me sit with a little notebook to draw the towers of great Romanesque cathedrals when I was a child. This was NOT to teach me to draw (nor, as I thought at the time, to torture me). It was to teach me to SEE.
Go to open studios. Go to gallery openings--it’s fun learning to see with a glass of wine in your hand. Go to museum shows.
Walk a path you take every day and find three new things (put away electronic devices).
Play “I spy” with your kids (the under 8 crowd see AMAZING things).
Open your eyes, connect your brain, and ACTIVELY SEE.
These guys see EVERYTHING!
