Senior Artists Initiative
Do you ever find yourself wondering what may happen to your artwork after you die? Morbid as it may sound, I do. I came across a website for the Senior Artists Initiative and was pleasantly surprised with the guidelines offered. While the site is geared towards seniors, there is some helpful information for any artist. Visit the Publications page for articles such as “What do inheritors do with artwork?” and “Where there’s a will, there may be a Monet.” Most helpful is the “Guidelines for Senior Artists.” It’s a collection of articles and advice, nothing too lengthy or extensive, but it covers topics such as writing a will, will substitutes, planning techniques for lower tax liability, and more. If you’re looking for some guidance on where to begin, the site offers some. For me, it’s a start.
