"No part of life or art should be merely rushing without appreciating the journey in its fullness along the way."
James e. Woody 2011
Blue-chip artists of the 21th century are in demand, Woody's paintings are reflecting our new realities and expected to continue to trend because they are focused on self-realization and design psychology, tools used increasingly to create inspiring places.
A seeker of answers to the mystery of the transformative process, his concept of transpersonal art as expression, employ the therapy principals of design psychology.
A learner of all things beautiful, he believes that there is a transpersonal richness in art that may in some way depict an approaching worldview, that art is life and life is sacred.
Founder of the Be Sensitive Foundation and the Be Remarkable Group, advocating for social impact investments.

Diversifying portfolios by purchasing luxury assets has become increasingly fashionable and fine art is a popular way to do that - financiers, celebrities, and royals are attendees of the biggest auction houses and events. Ownership of a Woody painting is simply the "new" modernism.
Art as an asset is in a class all of its own. The role of art is changing, it is no longer just appreciated for its aesthetic value and the expression of its lofty ideals but as an investment. The art industry tends to compete on uniqueness of artwork and not on price.
Art is an extremely popular way to add versatility to a traditional investment portfolio. Art offers low correlation to the price movements of other assets. Certain experts point to annual rates of return of anything between 5% and 25%f or the best-performing art sectors.
The most volatile values and the rocketing of prices explain the appeal of this market to collectors. Understanding how value is determined in the art market is essential when assessing the relative importance of representations in art transactions.
