My wife just got back from Bali on Friday morning and the first thing that she had to say was that she was amazed to see some aboriginal art in a store there. She went there to source some huts for the Tourist Park that we are developing. She ended up buying furniture, planter pots, statues, bed spreads, sheets, doonas, tiles, pavers and some huge doors like the ones that you see in mansions.

I was expecting to fill 2 x 40' containers with the Huts, now I fear that we are going to need 6 x 40' containers to fit everything in. I have heard of women who are habitual sale attendees, and get home and tell their husbands how much they have saved by buying this dress or these shoes etc., as a male my answer would be you haven't saved money you have spent it. My wife has never been one of that type, but i fear that now she is.

We will have to go into the household and garden furniture business. Some of the stuff is absolutely beautiful but where are we going to put it all, and the money she spent was supposed to be used to develop a Caravan Park and build the Huts. Not fill a fictitious store. The Balinese woodworkers are artists in their own right, and they are very good at displaying their art for sale.

I have got this thing going on in my mind; each item she purchased is walking hand in hand with its doppelganger up the gangplank of Noahs Ark. She has bought 2 of everything, except for hand basins, 12 of them, and 5 Beds, 3 sets of 6 dining room chairs, enough tiles and pavers to do 10 houses, lions of varying sizes, elephants, cats, owls, you name the animal she has probably bought a statue of it.

But back to the appearance of Aboriginal Art in Bali, is it so popular and saleable that you can travel overseas and buy something that is uniquely Australian. A lot of our tourists come to Australia to buy Aboriginal Art, but if you can buy it in Bali, or Europe or the USA, why come to Australia. I'll tell you why.

You should come to Australia to buy Aboriginal Art because there is only one website where you can buy the art of young relatively unknown Aboriginal Artists. If you dont buy from this particular website then the only other way that you can start investing in young Aboriginal Artists, and therefore potentially have a much greater return on your investment, is to come to Australia.

Spend lots of time travelling across the length and breadth of the country and buy all of the Aboriginal Art for sale that you can find, because it will be a long time before you come back. Spend a few months; because there are people who have spent years travelling around Australia and they still haven't seen it all, it is a huge country.

If you are buying Aboriginal Art purely for its beauty then why pay thousands of dollars for a famous artist when you can support a young up and coming Aboriginal Artist who can produce a similar piece of artwork. Work it out, you could spend tens of thousands of dollars buying the paintings of popular artists and sit on them and wait for years for them to appreciate in value or you can invest in young artists, spending less money and get a more rapid capital growth
