Mid-America Fine Arts Details
After moving to Wichita, Kansas in 1965, with the Ruthven's practice expanding over the following years, they were able to afford better quality art. With increasing knowledge of artists and the art market, they found and acquired more pieces by major American artists at regional auctions. Les and Courtney transitioned from just purchasing student art to purchasing the art of nationally known artists. This was first done for their private collection but they soon discovered they had more art than could be displayed. For many years they could not focus much time on art while practicing their profession, but they were able to buy from and sell to private parties in Kansas and art dealers around the USA.Over the years they developed a fairly impressive art collection and finally realized that, if they wanted to continue buying quality art, they also needed to sell some of their collection. Therefore, in 1971, they became art dealers and Mid-America Fine Arts was begun. The Ruthven's, now retired are focusing full time on their art collection.Courtney and Les do not favor the term "investment quality art" although many of their pieces can be so described. They prefer art as an emotional investment, something that adds to one's enjoyment and quality of life.
