Artnecdote
I used to live in Brighton and, in around 2002, I inherited a little bit of money and decided to buy a picture.
I had about £400 to spend and I was torn in the gallery between a nice painting of the pier, and a more modern-art type one. I went for the nice seaside one. I liked the other one, but it was by someone called Banksy, and I felt it wouldn't hold its value.

I quite like that pic
not sure I'd spunk 150k on it though

I really should keep all the paintings my sister has done for me
She is on the verge of signing up with the same company Banksy is a client of.
