• “Original” quite simply means a unique one-off piece or small edition hand-pulled print from the artists own hand - Oil Painting.

• Oil paint has a very specific grinding process, settling time and often is triple-milled....

• In professional paints ranges come in series where paints made with more expensive pigments will be a higher series and cost more to buy than those made with cheaper pigments which will be a low series.

• Oil paintings will always demand higher pricing because oil is a very difficult medium to become proficient with, and usually it will take the artist much longer to complete a piece.

• Also, the cost of paints, brushes and canvas is quite an investment.

• Brushes for oil can run into the hundreds of dollars.

• Art reproduction, otherwise known as art replicas, fine art reproductions, reproduction oil paintings, art copies, are just that – they are copies of usually well-known paintings that are hand-painted by a professional artist.
