At Budget Collector, we believe that the traditional online art-buying model stifles the growth of new artists and doesn’t promote the development of new art collectors. That’s why our approach is focused on increasing the number of art enthusiasts who can participate in the art world, whether they have the means to buy artwork or not. Other art technology platforms often take a significant commission from artists, stifling the ability for emerging artists to be introduced to collectors who just might love their work. Our team wanted to envision a new type of world that would challenge that model by developing the consumer’s taste rather than taking directly from an artist’s pocketbook.
