Art You Can Find and Sell: Vintage Art, Folk Art, Figurines, Art Glass & Antique Reseller Tips

Think you'll never be able to afford art to resell (or find any customers who can afford to buy it)? Art does not have to be museum-quality or painted by a well-known artist to attract a buyer. In this episode, we break down real-world art categories that sell, from figural pieces like cast iron doorstops, chalkware, porcelain figurines, and garden statuary to one-of-a-kind folk art, handmade “make-do” objects, and upcycled pieces. We talk a bit about what makes some quilts and embroidery samplers folk art (and what makes others craft projects). And we even discuss some surprises we've found along the way that can actually sell: amateur paintings, paint-by-numbers, velvet art, roadside motel art, and vintage prints (including bookplates and illustration art). The good news is, you don't have to be an art expert. Your love of vintage is all you need.
