Why Investing in a Living Artist is Your Next Smart Move
Why original art holds more value than prints. Learn how collecting Art Amour Studio's mixed media canvas pieces offers unique texture, rarity, and financial investment potential.
The iconic "B.A.P. (Black American Princess)" piece. Original mixed media art is a singular investment; once this piece is collected, it's gone forever.
The Two Kinds of Art on Your Wall
When you look for art, you’re presented with two fundamental choices: mass-produced decor designed to fill a wall, or original art created to tell a story.
There’s a massive difference in value, and we're not just talking about the price tag. The most valuable investment you can make is in the life, the passion, and the future of a living artist.
At Art Amour Studio, we want to help you build a collection that reflects your soul and fuels creativity. Here is why choosing to invest in our work, whether it’s a canvas print or an original collage, is the smartest choice you can make.
1. The Ethical and Economic Choice: Artist vs. Retail
Let's be clear about where your money goes.
When you purchase a piece of décor from a massive retailer like Walmart or Marshalls, you are buying a product that has been mass-produced and replicated thousands of times. The value goes into a distant corporate supply chain.
In stark contrast, every dollar invested in a piece from Art Amour Studio goes directly to the creation of the next great work. You are not just acquiring art; you are funding the future of art. This connection means your collection carries a unique human story and a legacy that mass-produced goods can never touch.
2. The Collector's Ladder: Prints Are Investments, Too
We believe everyone should be able to collect art. This is why we created the Collector's Ladder, a path for you to grow with the artist.
Step 1: Prints as an Entry Point. Our high-quality canvas and paper prints are the accessible first investment. They allow you to bring our unique vision into your home immediately and help you "grow with the artist," showing support and building your personal style.
Step 2: The Original Investment. As your budget and our studio’s profile grow, you are ready to invest in a higher-value original piece. This ensures you acquire a singular, collectible asset that anchors your entire collection.
Your print purchase is a vote of confidence; your original purchase is an investment in a legacy.
3. The Power of One: The Unmatchable Texture of Originals
While our prints are stunning, there is simply no comparison to the rare experience of owning the original. This is the difference that truly makes the piece an investment:
True Exclusivity: An original mixed media collage, like The B.A.P., is a singular, one-of-a-kind (1/1) piece. Once it's collected, it is permanently gone from the market.
Tactile Quality: Mixed media is not flat. It is a multi-dimensional sculpture. You can see and feel the shadows, the deliberate placement of textures, the layers of paint, and the subtle elements that digital replication can never capture. This physical connection is what gives original art its irreplaceable soul.
The Unmatchable Texture: A macro view demonstrating the layers, depth, and three-dimensional quality of the original mixed media art, a feature prints cannot replicate.
Elevate Your Home, Elevate Your Portfolio
Your home should tell a story that is uniquely yours. By choosing to invest in the work of a living artist, you choose authenticity, you choose texture, and you choose to play a vital role in the creation of culture.

🌸 Bedroom, But Make It Bloom 🌸
I transformed my bedroom into a cozy sanctuary — complete with a canopy, dreamy textures, and a soft, lived-in feel — and I've just been accepted into the Wayfair Creator Program. Welcome to my bloom.

There’s a shift that happens when you decide you deserve luxury.
Not someday.
Not when you reach the goal.
Now.
Recently, I was accepted into the Wayfair Creator Program, which basically means I get to curate and share the pieces that make my home feel magical — and get paid when people shop through my links. Soft life + soft income? We love an aligned opportunity. 💅🏽
But before that acceptance email hit my inbox, I was already doing something that changed my energy completely:
👉🏽 I started treating my bedroom like a sanctuary.
Not a storage space.
Not a “temporary until I figure it out” situation.
A sanctuary.
✨ The Vision:
I wanted to sleep inside a daydream.
I wanted to feel like the main character in a period drama who writes love letters by candlelight, drinks tea in silk pajamas, and whispers secrets into the night… except this is real life and my alarm clock goes off at 6am.
My motto became:
“Romanticize everything — especially the space where you rest.”
🌺 Let’s Talk About That Bed…
You see that canopy frame?
That is my throne.

I wrapped it in sheer draping because I wanted the feeling of privacy, softness, and a little whisper of “I am the queen of my life.” (Also: it makes even laundry on the floor look aesthetic. Just saying.)
The bedding? Layers. Always layers.
Textures that feel like a hug.
Colors that feel like peace.

🌿 The Corners: Where the Magic Lives
Every corner of my room has a purpose:
The plant corner because greenery = oxygen + vibes.
The tiny vintage side tables because I love mixing old soul energy with modern pieces.
The easel and art supplies because my bedroom isn’t just where I sleep — it’s where I dream up the world I’m building.
💡 Soft Tips for Romantic Bedroom Energy
Lighting is the love language of ambiance. Lamps over overhead lights every time.
Sheers soften the soul. Underestimate this at your own risk.
Layers make everything look expensive. Bedding, pillows, throws — mix textures.
One focal point, always. Mine is the bed. Everything bows to the bed.

🌸 Final Thoughts
Your home should hold you the way you hold everyone else.
Create a space where:
you want to wake up,
you love to return to,
and creativity feels effortless.
And if you're waiting for permission to elevate your space?
Consider this it.
You deserve beautiful things in your everyday life.
Welcome to the era of intentional softness.
Let’s bloom. 🌸
