Whenever you consider buying paintings from an online art gallery or art dealer always consider certain points before clicking the button for "Buy Now' With being in the art field for more than twenty years sharing practical knowledge from my experiences with art buyers. Here I am discussing about the price of the art work.
Below each art work or painting the artist has displayed or must display details and description, the medium it is done in, the size, maybe the year of the artwork and also the price. You select an artwork for purchase and want to finalize the deal by clicking.
Later on checkout you are surprised, delivery charges?  you have to pay transport charges and you are astonished by the rate of the painting which has gone up suddenly, and you think  The painting you bought from a local art gallery would have been better! this method of online art buying is in bad taste and creates a negative experience for you which you transfer to your friends and colleagues.
For this you have to consider all the costs incurred during the purchase of anything online. It is always understood that you have to pay certain charges for transport if the painting is from an artist of a  foreign country. Mostly transport in the same city maybe free, but for a different state or country it may have certain extra charges. 
Many art websites and galleries have mentioned prices for paintings within the city and for outside limits. Usually the artist may also add a line quoting that all transport charges included in the final price mentioned. In such deals you will not have to pay extra amount after the purchase and you can get the correct figure of the amount required for purchase. In case this is not mentioned always email the art gallery, artist or art dealer regarding this aspect before buying paintings online.
With experience many art galleries are quoting prices with added transport charges. here the buyer gets the right amount at a glance and can consider about the purchase immediately. If there are extra charges then the deal may take some time and sometimes even lead the buyer to another website or art gallery. Since time is an asset and decisions about purchase are quick one has to consider all details before going in for the purchase of paintings. By looking at the exact price one can judge the artwork and consider the purchase appropriately.
Then many online art galleries prefer the all inclusive price, like my personal healing art website razarts.com no hassles about shipping charges, its one price! This is so clear and specific. The buyer is not confused or does not hesitate to ask about how much more they will have to pay. They know the exact amount they are paying for the artwork. I also am very particular in mentioning proper details about the painting, whether it is art on paper or canvas, the size I prefer in inches,  I also add art displayed in interior décor settings for you to understand how the painting will look on wall and so many even renovate décor according to the beautiful healing artwork. 
What I used to do earlier, I would email the buyer with their inquiry about shipping charges if any are needed. Now I have stopped adding extra charges.  The mentioned price is all inclusive and it is mentioned in the description of the painting posted online.
At times some international healing art buyers do email me and ask if the artwork is available or not if it is a costly piece and about extra images, which I share through email. And of course , price is always somewhat  negotiable with large art pieces and customized bulk orders for gifting art. With small affordable  art cards and small sized reiki paintings people do click buy now and purchase as details are given on my website in description. I make it a point to always describe artworks and their medium, and size details clearly, in simple language. So, personally I have never faced this issue  or returns with my so many years of making art!
Sometimes also shocking is you get an art print on a thin paper. At times buyer receives parcel without frame without prior knowledge and are sad. Usually photos and advertisements online are misleading. So many online art galleries' have sprung up for business purpose and do not actually make art or know anything about art. They just research and pay for Google ranking. 
Packing and Shipping costs are really very high, and personally if someone can collect my art from my home studio I would actually reduce fifty percent of the price of artworks! 
There is sometimes also available and unavailable. so first check that status, stock available,  before spending time over selecting paintings. 

so when buying art online check the asterisk, the tiny star symbol, and details in the footnote on the page!
People actually don't know that artists do not just paint, with painting professionally since year 2000, now, I have  become all in one!
 so many roles, a photographer, editor , interior decorator, feng shuii consultant best art display suggestions for best results, analyzing other paintings for their hidden symbolism, I became connected with the unknown people out there through my Google blogs , giving free advice, giving free energy Reiki for those in need, and even though sometimes it becomes overwhelming to keep answering detailed emails for free, I still make it a point to answer each one within three days at most!
  Those the Universe chooses find me! of all those roles I have become a better individual! You learn, I read a lot, you as an artist begin to run a business, with personalized website. There is a lot of hard work, no doubt, nothing comes easy, the myth"artists dip a brush in paint and make a splash!" well no, its a serious myth! for that splash the artist has given more than 10,000 hours of serious painting time! and effort!
No doubts absolutely how my painting will look in a modern decor living room, kitchen, office!
I love the choice of wall colours keeping them neutral, to bring out the beauty in artworks displayed. My home, also has neutral off white colored walls that bring a pop of colour and energy wherever the eye moves!  So much colour and symbols, I am always surrounded by healing art colours and symbols!
so if you are here, viewing my art on  a laptop or your mobile phone, choose a art piece, click "more" option for details you will see below ZOOM and different display in  living rooms, kitchen, bedroom, art displayed in ROOM, 
The photos art in decor suggestions, give a guide to how art will look displayed on wall. You at least understand the perspective, whether its a small artwork or large canvas. And this helps to understand that very small art on large wall will not do justice to the wall or your decor. 
To avoid negative experiences with buying and adding original paintings please do check the tiny asterix symbol below and read details before hitting buy now!
Hop[e this helps!
What are your experiences with buying paintings online? did you find specific artworks you are looking for by searching on google search? try it! walls decorat5ed with original hand made art are way way better than some machine made print!
Tapping into Reiki energy for Abundance!

Have a Blessed Day!
