These are the burgeoning talents you should have on your radar if one of your goals for 2024 is to build your art collection.

18 Artists Whose Work You Can Still Buy for Less Than $1000

These are the burgeoning talents you should have on your radar if one of your goals for 2024 is to build your art collection.

When it comes to buying a piece of art, there are a few things to consider. First and foremost should always be your gut feeling: Do you love looking at it? Do you feel some kind of affinity to the work or the artist? Will it have a place in your space for years to come? But of course, money is typically an object, and there are few things more disappointing when decorating than seeing something you love only to find its way out of your price range.

So, how do you ensure you fall in love with something you can actually afford? Keep an eye on local and emerging artists who are creating work that has investment potential and will make a beautiful addition to your space for now and well into the future. Here are eight to get on board with.
