Art as a Service
Why?
Works of art can cost a lot. Tou still need and want art in your life, how can you get the pleasure without the prohibitive cost?
For artists and galleries, it’s a predictable income source, with the added option of gaining a repeat buyer.
How?
Rent the work of art you like. Directly from the artist, gallery, or even a unique marketplace. If you fall in love with it and want to keep it, just buy it. Many purchasing options could be used, like deducting the money already paid for rent, having a fixed length leasing contract with a buyout option at the end, etc.

Real Life Undo for Drawing and Painting
Why?
You can undo most of what you did yo something you draw or paint with a digital device so experimenting with new creating ideas on work you are doing has no cost because you can always go back to a previous version. It might be fun to have a similar option when you are drawing in the real analog world and not on a digital device.
How?
A transparent “paper” that behaves like real paper, so it reacts to your drawing and painting utensils (pencils, pastels, etc.) in a similar way to real paper. You can then have new layers of this “paper” added to your work and experiment. If you don’t like the result, just through away the top layer(s) of this “paper.”
