Only recently my wife went to Bali, and on her return the first thing that she said to me was that she was amazed to see aboriginal art being sold in a store there. She went there to investigate buying some huts for the Caravan Park that we hope to develop. During her sojourn she bought furniture, planter pots, statues, bed spreads, sheets, doonas, tiles, pavers and some huge doors like the ones that you see in mansions.
I was expecting to fill 2 x 40' containers with the Huts, now I fear that we are going to need 6 x 40' containers to fit everything in. I have heard of women who are habitual sale attendees, and get home and tell their husbands how much they have saved by buying this dress or these shoes etc., as a male my answer would be you haven't saved money you have spent it. My wife has never been one of that type, but i fear that now she is.
We are going to have to go into the retail furniture business, because if we don't sell something we aren't going to be able to move in our home. Don't get me wrong some of the stuff is absolutely beautiful but where are we going to put it all.
I have got this thing going on in my mind; each item she purchased is walking hand in hand with its doppelganger up the gangplank of Noahs Ark. She has bought 2 of everything, except for hand basins, 12 of them, and 5 Beds, 3 sets of 6 dining room chairs, enough tiles and pavers to do 10 houses, lions of varying sizes, elephants, cats, owls, you name the animal she has probably bought a statue of it.
But I regress, back to the appearance of Aboriginal Art in Bali, is it so much in demand that we in Australia can't keep up with international demand and that you have to travel to countries near Australia to buy something that is uniquely Australian. A lot of tourists come to Australia to buy Aboriginal Art, but if you can buy it in Bali, or Europe or the USA, why come to Australia. Let me explain why.
You should come to Australia to buy Aboriginal Art because there is only one website where you can buy the art of young relatively unknown Aboriginal Artists. If you dont buy from this particular website then the only other way that you can start investing in young Aboriginal Artists, and therefore potentially have a much greater return on your investment, is to come to Australia.
You can spend months travelling around Australia buying up big, and you should, because it will be a long time before you come back. I say spend a few months because there are people who spend all year long travelling around Australia and they still haven't seen it all, it is a big country.
If you are buying Aboriginal Art purely for is aesthetic value then why pay thousands of dollars for a famous artist when you can support a young up and coming Aboriginal Artist who can produce a similar product. Do your figures, you can spend thousands of dollars buying the paintings of well-known artists and sit on them and wait for years for them to increase in value or you can invest in young artists and get a more rapid capital growth.
