Art collectors must invest in Fabian Perez prints as paintings by the Argentinean artist are big business.

Safetalks Business Blog advises art enthusiasts that buying Fabian Perez prints is worthwhile because any work by the South American is likely to increase in value due to the quality and popularity of the paintings.

Fans of Perez may not be able to afford the artist's original work but investing in prints is a good way to start a collection which can increase in number and also value over a period of time.

"Any collector should also consider Fabian Perez art for their collection, whether they are purchasing canvas prints for the first time or have a whole series of paintings already in the home," stated the blog.

The Argentinean does not like to categorise his work but has described his style, which mixes colours, shadows and highlights as 'Emotionalism'.

Fabian Perez paintings were described by the blog as modern and amazing and the man himself was likened to "a rock star in the art world".

This is not the first time that the artist has been compared to a rock star as Fabian Perez sports long hair, has a dedication to karate and has been involved in a number of high profile collaborations.

Fabian Perez's artwork was used as the official image for the merchandise involved with the 2009 Annual Latin Grammy Awards including invitations, show tickets, posters and programme books.

Latin Recording Academy President Gabriel Abaroa said: "Fabian's timeless artwork is filled with energy and emotion. His piece brings a human element to our artwork."

The following year Fabian Perez was commissioned by the U.S. Olympic committee to be the official artist for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver.

Fabian Perez was born in a small city outside Buenos Aires and experienced an unconventional upbringing which would inspire his approach to art.

His father reportedly owned three brothels and his mother was a bohemian figure which led Perez to paint exotic and sultry women who "could seduce a man simply by lighting a cigarette".

Both of Perez's parents died while he was a teenager and this saw the young man embark on a journey of self discovery taking him to destinations such as Italy before settling down in Los Angeles.

Being based in L.A. does not restrict Perez from visiting his British fans as the artist regularly appears at galleries across the nation to promote his latest work.
