Razarts: Buying Paintings Art Online Check this! Important info post to buy paintings online

Buying Art online from your mobile phone, you will be WOWED with the availability of so many paintings websites online, from all genres, colors, subjects, themes, concept and whatever you wish for! Randomly checked a site and Oh saw the remark, review on a online at site,"My Online Purchased Painting Turned out to be Very Small"!!! "this is not the colours shown in the photograph' " the artwork received is just a art print on paper" " the painting is unframed, now we have to pay extra money for the right frame" yes, these are bound to happen if the website does not display details of each artwork, and people tend to just look at cheaper price and buy.

Buying paintings online is an easy way to bring art into your home but very often we over see the aspect of the size of art purchased. What happens then? you end up either with a very small artwork that gets lost on your wall or a very large painting that covers your whole wall and looks very over bearing!
Shocked with your recent online art purchase? hesitant to buy paintings online? this is true for so many and if you have had any bitter experiences in buying paintings from any online art gallery or art website please do share in the comments.
Why does this happen? and what is the result of such an purchase?
Every one knows art does not come cheap. After shelling out precious money for the purchase of an painting of your choice you may get the feeling of dissatisfaction and the artwork may after some time end up in your attic. How can you avoid this? Before making an purchase of painting from an online art gallery or art dealer look at the details of each artwork.

This is also happening because selling art online ahs become business for many and they just start a free website and paint few artworks or even just collect few artists and start selling. they hardly have any knowledge about art, art selling or authenticity of art. It is business for them and by hook or crook they pay to get ahead with google ranking, paid promotions and advertisements which are written by those professionals who don't know anything about art! to get more sales.

Personally as an artist for more than two decades I always mention the size, year and medium of the artwork below each image of the painting. It is but natural for any individual to first consider the visual impact of the painting. Then comes the price and finally the colours if they match with your decor of the room it has to be displayed in. If the size is not mentioned it is better to email the art website or the artist and ask for details of the artwork, they would be happy to answer.

Biggest mistake, we only see the visual impact of the art! most of the times cheap paintings uploaded are edited to brightness and displayed with finesses to bring out perfection for the viewers. the actual painting may not be such.

Fact is all photos look the same online and even a small artwork will cover the page and a larger sized painting may look small with cropped image. Personally I also am surprised with this photos of paintings even after making art for more than twenty years.
We often forget the size aspect and finalize the deal and are happy to own an original artwork. This is one of the most important weak points of online viewing and purchasing art, that you do not get the correct representation, perspective of the size of the painting.
You must see below each artwork and calculate in terms of your wall the size of the artwork and how much space it will occupy. Consider any object of the similar size or take a newspaper or cloth piece of that size and hang it on that wall. By this you will understand the correct visual impact the size of artwork will give on putting up on that particular wall.
Certain aspect are better discussed if not mentioned on the website before making the purchase since size is a matter which cannot be changed and however much you may like the painting and works of that artist you cannot create space. So always select paintings which can be of a comfortable to display in your living room or which ever room you want it to. Online purchases are hassle free and will help you appreciate and buy art from within the comforts of your home.
Why, I always make this a point with clarity, even my art buyers also share room wall photos, even decor to see that the art blends or pops up in their home decor. This is better than buying something impulsively and then having the artwork end up in storage or attic!
And, yes, the symbolism in the artwork. The hidden symbolism, meaning and what does the painting represent is also very important. working on a book about this, maybe soon will add on my Amazon Kindle. here it is- The Fire on my Wall! Shocking effects of wall art interesting fiction story of a top fashion brand!
Serious effects are observed when art chosen is wrong for your life and placed on the wrong wall. feng shuii symbolism and knowledge can help prevent so many mishaps and family issues cropping up unknowingly in your life, just because you bought a painting and hung it on the worn wall!
People do email me with images of artworks they are wishing to buy from random sources for feng shuii symbolism and advice, and I do guide them for free in making the correct choice of artworks. Please just narrow down your search and then email me. forwarding big folders of many artworks makes it confusing for me, my time is also precious, please do respect this. Thank you for understanding!

Then there are also now latest apps that help you visualize how actually art will look displayed on your wall. You will see a lot of creative display ideas and art framing ideas and apps to virtual exhibitions of art.
