Question Title

* 7. What reasons, if any, have you had for not buying art in a gallery?

I think super rich people buy art from galleries and I feel profiled and uncomfortable when I enter a store.

I think the person at the gallery will make me feel uneducated about art options.

The salespeople are either too pushy or too distant.

The prices are outrageous.

I don't see anything I like, or nothing strikes me as something I would put on my wall.

The art is inaccessible to me physically, so I can't touch or look at it very well.

The layout of the gallery or the arrangement of art in the gallery is strange or wrong in some way.

I would rather support someone local whom I know in person.

I am totally comfortable in all galleries and none of these reasons apply.
