@art_rki: Someone just asked if I write my art purchases off on my taxes. The answer? Nope. Art Rookie isn't a business that makes money and I’ve never even thought to set it up as something like that because it's a project that costs money so from a tax perspective it wouldn’t work. But it's also the thing I'd be doing if I didn't have to work for money in the first place (even though I still do…) I just decided to start it on a sustainable scale while still working my regular job because it seemed fun and challenging and intellectually stimulating and I was cranky that there was no coverage for “mere mortal” art collectors. I was already paying to go to art fairs, talking to collectors, visiting galleries, and I decided to just turn it into content because I genuinely love learning about art and helping other people feel more comfortable collecting it. Not everything has to become a side hustle. Sometimes it's enough for something to be meaningful. And if this ever turns into something that makes money? Well… all that will just go towards a bigger project that supports artists my husband and I are dreaming of. #ArtRookie #ArtCollector #ArtCollecting #ContemporaryArt #ArtWorld
