To be an art collector you have to be rich, right? Not necessarily! Yes, you can spend thousands to millions on fine art pieces by famous well known artists. But not all artists that are hugely talented are famous or well known. Most artists are just trying to make a living and get our work into […]

Most of of us have a love/hate relationship with our cars. But I think we can agree that most of  us like to drive and do have a favorite car, whether a brand or a specific model or even era of automobile. I do. I love the 1900-1950 models and styling of cars. I just think they […]
