Golden rules of art collectors for  the new young art collectors for storing paintings-
1) Very important , buy cheap,  means hunt for new talent, new  artists , also you can bargain and get great deals on buying more paintings, new emerging artists works so that you can get a good number of paintings in  your budget ranges. Here the advantage of storing paintings would be that most of the works are   either ten or more years old and not more than that so  the paintings  are varnished and in very good condition, no need to spend money on restoration work or preserving of paintings.

Avoid keeping stored paintings near air conditioner vents, windows and doors for harmful environmental exposure in from of blast of  wind, sunlight,  rains etc.

3) Cover your prized oil and acrylic paintings collections with soft muslin cloth when not hanged on walls. Any soft cloth that will not damage the texture in your paintings.
4) In case  of framed  paintings in glass, collages and other types of artworks   very important to pack them  carefully in wooden boxes or some containers to protect them from harm.  Label them, handle with care and which side up to open the next time someone gets back to them.
5) Keep your prized costly paintings safe, in safety lock, as  many works of famous artist are worth a fortune and many art collections value with art collectors goes  in many millions of  $. Good locks and safety security measures  for your art collections. Many have regulated temperature rooms for storing prized costly paintings from their art collections. There are also storage safe vaults for storing artworks but they are very costly so only few  really precious artworks can be listed, insured and stored here.
6) Insure the art collection, especially costly artworks of famous artists, from a reputed insurance company, it is better to be safe than sorry, for unexpected crises and unnatural disasters.
7) Once in a  while clean up all your paintings by keeping them in good  condition. Oil painting conservation at home demonstration by The Red Pilgrim short video. How to clean costly paper paintings short video demonstration.
 In case any painting  needs restoration or repair do it promptly as  the damage sometimes to your precious paintings when delayed becomes irreparable and also costs a lot from  a  reputed restoration artist.

Finally do show off your prized collections once in a  while! we all know the glint in the eyes of any art collector when  they talk of their art collections and prized possessions. Have a show for private guests, art  galleries and art shows,  and also keep rotating hanging new art in your homes and offices so that your paintings also get to do the  most important thing, breathe!
