The Artist - Is the artist in the beginning of his or her career? Is the artist more well known and established? There are a few pros and cons to buying artwork from a more established sculptor. With a more established sculptor, the artwork, if you paid more for it, will hold its value better than artwork from a sculptor who is completely unknown. Conversely, if you buy from an artist who is toward the beginning of their career, you could end up spending less on the sculpture and then end up getting a larger value from the sculpture than what you paid for it. As the sculptor advances in his or her career, the sculpture's value will increase and give you equity.
See if You Can Find Reviews On The Artist - See what others say about the artist you are considering buying from online. Find out how reputable the sculptor is and how they are viewed in the art community.
If You Can Afford It, Sensor swab Have a Custom Sculpture Made - If you do find a sculptor that you like, but aren't finding the exact sculpture you need, ask the sculptor how much they would charge to create a custom sculpture for you. It might end up costing you less than you would think.
Consider Whether You Want It Professionally Installed - If you are buying a half-life or life-sized sculpture, ask the artist how much they would charge to have the sculpture professionally installed. This usually is not included in the base price of the sculpture.
