Modern ArtBuyer’s art sourcing and consultancy supports private buyers, interior designers, property developers and corporate spaces on the journey to finding great art for their walls.
Hunting for art is an enticing prospect, but the reality is that most people simply don’t have the time. On top of this, they are often limited to the galleries and artists within their immediate vicinity. And even when time and access are not an issue, we understand that many people appreciate some guidance around selecting the right pieces and making the perfect choice.
This is where Modern ArtBuyer steps in.
Together we’ll create a brief for the project to understand your style preferences, the look, feel and intended use of the space, and any budgets you’re working with. We will then spend time curating a selection of exceptional artworks that fit your brief beautifully. Not only do we select from our own roster of artists, but we also source from our database of other artists and galleries, to offer clients a broad choice to whet their appetite.
We’ll set our ideas out in a simple proposal with artworks, sizes and prices clearly set out. The process is open and friendly, with all comments filtering through to hone the selection. There is no obligation to buy, but hopefully the ideas will open your eyes to new works and styles.
If you have a project that you think we could help with, we’d love to discuss it with you, so please get in touch.
“The lovely Jessica Lloyd-Smith has brightened my home recently with some wonderful new artworks. The prints in the gym are bursting with colour and energy. The lounge belongs to the very talented Maria Rivans, while the kitchen has the brilliant black scribble dog by Sally Muir…he looks so much like Rufus, my schnauzer. Jess took time to match frames, balance and hang the artwork carefully and showed her usual level of perfection insisting on client happiness throughout the whole project."

“We have worked with Modern ArtBuyer on a number of projects, both commercial and residential. Jess is always a pleasure to work alongside. She listens carefully to the brief and responds by sourcing pieces from both established and emerging artists that fit our schemes in terms of look and budget. The service we receive is consistently excellent, with Jess often going above and beyond to help us deliver for our clients.
We would not hesitate in recommending Modern ArtBuyer and consider Jess an extension of our design team.”

“I am still coming downstairs each day and smiling to myself as I look around at the artworks. And looking forward to showing my family next month as they come to stay! What a wonderful experience, thank you.”
Private client, Monmouthshire
“The process of commissioning two paintings has been incredibly smooth and very enjoyable, and we both have you to thank for making it such a pleasant experience. When we’re on the lookout for more artwork in the future we’ll definitely come back to you. Thank you once again for all your help and expertise.”
Simon Li — Private Client, Nottinghamshire
"We’ve been working with Jess at Modern ArtBuyer for many years now - buying artworks for our own personal collection as well as hanging fantastic pieces in our luxury rental properties. Before every project, we’ve taken advice from Jess about our choice and included her as part of the team, which has been a great asset and lots of fun. And it goes without saying that the art has transformed our spaces!"
