		<description>I am having very poor knowledge of art when compared to Ruksana. In short just I can say she is the Raja Ravi Verma of present time. I wish her every success on global level and wish her paintings to become the part of every house hold on the Earth.</description>

		<description>I can just say wow after reading this article from my dear friend RUKS. I know her as a friend, artist and as  a gentle soul during these chaotic days for about last ten years. I am simply amazed by her analytic approach after reading this in depth article on Economy of Arts.

Now after reading this article of Ruks, I would love to add few more lines in a different direction to ensure the continuity in our Indian traditions as lovers and connoisseurs of all kinds of art forms.

India is known as fountainhead of various art forms including literature, Dance, Music, Painting and Sculpture in all strata of Indian society.  Historically artists were supported and sustained politically, financially as well as emotionally by kings and rules of their time in addition to some temples and other seats of learning and Thinking. Also India welcomed with open arms the Arts and artists from all directions thus creating fusion of music art, literature and languages. 

It is only during last couple of centuries that the ruling entities prevailing over our society lost their focus on the encouragement to art forms and artistes which worsened with our economic exploitations and degradations in living standards.  Artistes had to endure poverty and hardship and sustain their chosen passion and art form on their own with few exceptions where they were supported by universities, religious entities and some citizens who were devoted to art. 

Though the blame for recent decline in our traditional interest in sustaining the art forms cannot be fixed on any person or part of our society other than political and economical conditions, we should be proud that these art forms have managed to survive these difficult days. It is time now for us Indians to be grateful to these artists and have a re-look at the possible concerted actions to retain all art forms and support their sustenance. 

This is particularly important now that we are gaining upper hand on our economical backwardness, seeing the light of progress in all fronts such as economy, technology, education and other frontiers that affect our social wellbeing. We Indians were known for our heritage in Art and Science for ages and now we must sustain it and hand it over to our future generations with all the enhancements that is possible for us achieve. 

Hence, I would appeal to all Indians and other citizens of the world to actively participate in preservation and growth of art and Ruks has highlighted the immediate benefits in her article for investment in art. 

Ruks, you have done a great service to Indian art by not just being a painter and calligrapher but telling us that it pays to be an artlover. i am proud of a friend like you.</description>

		<description>I found Rukshana's article to be informative--an excellent conversation starter. Personally, emotional "investment" is my primary motivation for purchasing art (e.g. whether the piece speaks to me in some way, will it bring beauty and/or enjoyment into my life?) but no matter what the reason for purchasing a piece of artwork (whether it appreciates in value or not), doing so supports artisans on a local, grass roots level. What can be bad about that? Best wishes Rukshana!</description>

		<description>Congratulations to Rukshana on her success and to all Indian artists who have moved forward with the times. Accurate cataloguing of art is essential to its' successful movement into mainstram culture worldwide. Indian artists and Curators are reincarnating the world the glory of India, prior to invasions that destroyed the beauty of Indian society. I am glad Indias' evolution into the new century is a wonderful AUM of its past and its soul. Such is the Karmic force of the only civiization in the world who can repeat AUM in a thousand ways and not mean "war".  Looks like I will have to change the Corporate Goal of Chaya.com to 
"promoting- Art and Ayutrveda". Best wishes to Rukshana.</description>

		<description>As a painter, I both create art and purchase art. I know that my purchased paintings have increase in value over the years, and in meantime, they give me immense pleasure to view on a daily basis. 

Yes, I do see art as a very good investment, and an affordable one.  One can certainly find art at all price levels. I really enjoyed this article and it's points about Indian art.</description>
