His stuff isn’t cheap but it also moves if it needs to. I would like to look at owning original art pieces as opposed to heading to ikea for some generic pieces
I’ve seen his stuff in a lot of galleries. Masters runs quite a bit. Plus I’ve looked in galleries in Canada and in US.
I just started looking at auction sites but unsure which ones are more legit or likely to service his work
An honestly if some art snobs want to tear him apart or suggest other artists with similar styles etc. I’m all years.

If you like his work that's enough reason to buy, the one thing I would warn you about though is, as much as we assume an artists death will increase their value it often doesnt, in fact it often does the opposite, without regular shows and an agent promoting them dead artists can just fade into insignificance, his work is lovely but at 71 thinking of it as an investment is not a good plan, it could lose most of its value within a few years of his passing
