Fine Art: Agnes Rathonyi

A few of my sibling & hubby's awesome and vast collection of Canadian Agnes Rathonyi fine Art is below. 

Sis and hubby have curated their collection so well that we are among others who have also begun collecting Agnes' artwork based on the tasteful collection they've displayed at their home.

My Agnes Rathonyi Art Collection Increaseth

Summertime had my sisters sending me pictures of our fave Canadian Artist's various works during a yearly festival which they were attending.

 I texted about this little piece of original art which had my favorite shade of green in it. 
Alas, I was told that it was bought by someone else by the time my Sibs got around to inquiring about its price and availability on my behalf.  Darn. 




I had a feeling that one of my sisters had purchased it for herself as she also likes the same shade of green.  I was right --- she did purchase it -- for ME!!!!  It was my belated Birthday gift which she gave on Christmas eve.  I was beyond stunned and happy.  She and her hubby are soooo generous. Praise the Lord!  Here it is on our Art Gallery wall.

How to Clean Your Precious Original Artwork

Valuable!  We own a few original paintings.  I equate the true cost of each to however many hours my husband sat at his work-desk plus the hours spent in commuter traffic to get there and back.  So, can we truly put an amount on their price tags?
... all your money won't another minute buy-- Dust in the Wind, by Kansas

Hopefully, other Art lovers will agree that each is quite precious when the time comes to sell one or a couple. BTW, I was at the artshow when the mosaic-like artwork by J. McMillan was on display. I wish I had been the one who had bought it. Same with the painting of the old man and his pipe.

I found the how-to-clean Art article below helpful so as not to damage artwork.  We have yet to own an  Erin Hanson original work of Art, but she is very much on our radar.

One common question we get asked at The Erin Hanson Gallery is “how do I clean my painting?” This is a vital piece of knowledge that every art collector should have in his or her repertoire. Whether you are a serious or casual collector, it’s important to know how to care for the pieces you cherish.
That said, “how to clean art” isn’t something commonly taught in schools. Art curators and conservationists are specially trained in this area, but few outside this select group know what they are doing when it comes to caring for their art. That’s why we’ve provided a step-by-step how-to guide for you to follow when cleaning your Erin Hanson paintings.

How to Clean Your Painting:
1. Take the painting down and place it face up on a sturdy, well-lit surface. We recommend you cover the surface with a towel or something similar to avoid scratching the table's surface. A clean table with direct lighting is your best painting-cleaning station...
