Buying ocean theme oil paintings

[sdrealtor]

Actually my art is from an expensive gallery and was not what I would consider cheap. High quality giclees of original artist proofs are fairly expensive as is the custom framing to do them justice. Its an investment in my happiness and I love them. I smile every time I see them and everyone who sees them does too.

Art galleries is a incredibly high-margin business. Maybe not a certain gallery as a whole, but the mark-up on a single piece is very high.

Giclees are reproduction on canvas using digital photography and ink jet printers. Costco even has periodic shows where they offer to put your own pictures on canvas.

There are also reproduction paintings by hand. Those paintings often come from Russia, China, and Vietnam and are done by accomplished art students and artists with years of training. They are sold in galleries in America but the country of provenance is not necessarily disclosed to the buyers.

If you buy an expensive reproduction from an art gallery, with that money, you could buy the air-ticket to China and buy a painting yourself.

As we know, China is now becoming a center for classical music and other art forms that we find out-of-date in America (and don’t much teach in schools anymore).

Congratulations on figuring out who to use wikipedia. Yes I can go to costco and get a great deal on giclees of Dogs Playing Poker. What I cant get is limited copies of original artwork from specific artists whose work I enjoy. I have some reproduction oil paintings of classic pieces done by accomplished art students also but no one seems to notice them in my home. They just fill empty wall space and a couple now reside under my bed. While I hope to visit China someday it will not be to buy cheap artwork> The money I spent on my artwork wouldnt cover the trip costs of getting them nor the time I would need to take away from my work and/or family to do so.

Maybe youo should start a business running art buying junkets to China if you are such a beleiver that is the way to go.

I see. If you want a giclee of a certain contemporary piece which you really like, instead of the original, then that makes perfect sense.

I am big believer in getting the most for your money. Why would we not want great bargains?

BTW, in China they have cool glass art too for a fraction of the prices in San Diego art galleries.

That’s what many art gallery owners do. They have certain reproduction artists they work with to order art for their clients.
