If you are a first timer and wish to buy simple and cheap artworks then you can visit various online art sites that have displayed artworks of new and emerging artists. Since we all know paintings of established artworks go in lakhs and crores one can begin with new artists or prints of artworks that are available cheap. Even famous paintings owned by art collectors are put up sometimes for sale.
 Prints are definitely cheaper than the original artworks and you get to take away the same painting home, just a print in very less price. But be careful as the costs of framing and shipping is added to the original price mentioned. On my website there is a standard clear rule, shipping always free, one price quoted inclusive of packaging shipping charges. I never offer framed paintings as this has a wide range of options and art buyers prefer to frame art according tot heir home or office decor colours. Frames are available in so many varieties it is difficult to choose and also comes in various price ranges from simple frames to ornamental and opulent art frames. Technology nowadays is so advanced that you have to give a closer second look to identify the original from the print. They are also available with authentication certificate and signed and numbered by the artist. One can buy art prints of paintings directly from the artist by visiting their website or purchase this from an reputed online art gallery.

Paintings of new and emerging artist are low priced as compared to established artists. For the beginner art collector one can go in for a smaller sized artwork as usually they are less priced. Many artists price their artworks according to measurements of the paintings and here you may get a cheap deal online. Paintings on paper and other material may also be less priced as compared to canvas paintings as the materials used are less costly that canvas and oil paints. This is not a general rule and any artist has the freedom to quote their price and wish to price their artworks according to size, materials used or theme and idea behind the artwork. But usually this has been observed that to get a cheap deal in buying paintings the best bet would be to do a good survey of artworks available online and on different art galleries. See how many artworks fall into your budget category and then select the theme of the painting.

Advantages and Disadvantages of buying art online
Some small online lifestyle products shops also sell paintings for cheap, but many times they may not provide an authentication certificate. Why it is important to buy art from reputed online art gallery? And also you do not know if is an fake. You may see a very famous painting of an big artists available at discounted price and grab this offer, only to find out later that it is a fake.  Before buying artworks online consider that if the deal looks too cheap then there may be a question if the artwork is original or not. Buying a fake artwork would be as good as buying a poster and that can be got from any roadside vendor and cheaper that buying a painting.

Buying Paintings Online A Rich Experience!

Trends of buying artworks is picking up. Even the middle class people can now afford to display artworks in their living rooms. Many emerging and upcoming artists offer paintings at very reasonable prices. Prints are still cheaper and can be easily bought from many online art galleries. The process of buying paintings online involving the whole family is a very novel and enriching experience.

In today's fast paced life would it not be good when your daughter also suggested some artwork she likes, and your teenager who is always out gets involved in  the process  of  searching art         websites offering advice of the internet! Buying paintings online can become a small get together for friends and family. The process involves searching for art ,  online art galleries, if you have preference for certain artists then finding where their paintings are available and on which sites.

The internet also require time and lots of looking up if you really want to buy a good artwork. The common man is spoilt for choices regarding art. Artists paint in different styles. Some artworks are painted with watercolours, some with oil paints whereas some are collages! The advantage of online viewing of any painting is that one can view the works many times and also consult their family regarding the choice of paintings. Here you get different views and opinions and the paintings  to be purchased. Taking time out with the family for buying paintings  online will give much more satisfaction and feel worth the effort. The family can sit together and discuss, and buying paintings online may also become a small get together of the whole family. 

Selection of any artwork can be considered by old and young alike. The whole family can set up a budget for art and search for paintings that are available in sizes that fit onto their walls. The older generation may also get an opportunity to buy  religious and symbolic artworks for their room, where as the younger generation can go in for more contemporary paintings. It is real fun to get involved in the purchase with every one shedding light on the purchase of a painting. Such activities will also enrich the family members and friends  to appreciate art and this can be a step towards making the common man understand art.

Photographs of Paintings Online

The internet gives us the pleasure of viewing many artworks from the comfort of our homes. Here we get a wide range of choices in size, colour schemes and styles of paintings from different artists. A thing which would not have been possible when we travel in the hot sun to an art gallery and view works of a single artist. Your viewing and selection of an artwork totally depends on the image put up by the artists or online art galleries.
The rule of the thumb , think before going in for a purchase only on the first look of the picture online. Whenever an art gallery or art dealer puts up images and photographs of any artwork, it is always done in high resolution. There is ample lighting and photographs are clicked in controlled environments. Remember the photo shoot ads of film stars, how you see their glowing flawless skin, long shiny hair and perfect body! any person who has knowledge of photo editing and photo shop program mes knows very well that these images are photo shopped to perfection. So also may be the case regarding photographs of original paintings displayed on online art gallery websites.
Any painting will look different in natural sunlight and very much different in artificial lights. In art galleries also when we see an artwork the top lighting or floor lamps accentuate or highlight the artworks. The same painting when put up on our wall does not give the same effect. The best advice for any buyer would be to choose a painting in natural light. Since lighting modes in homes and offices differ for every individual buyer, it is best to check out personally the colours that are used on the artworks especially if you are very choosy about certain colours. Like some people do not like black, for them it is a symbol of death but the same person may like darkest blue or darkest brown! If you are one of these types then better think before buying paintings online.
Take a look at the paintings, view it and see what response it emits. Try to avoid emotional buying, though we all know buying artworks is also a passion for some and its all a matter of heart! The standard procedure for purchase from any art website, is to order the painting and pay online, and when on delivery the buyer is not satisfied with the work they can return it immediately though there are some charges and total money may not be refunded. These ethics are followed by many artists and art galleries and the buyer has to read terms and conditions of deal carefully before making a final purchase.
In some case it may also be the opposite case. Many times the strokes and colours are better in the original artwork. Some of the artists who are not camera savvy do not know how to take high resolution images. This does not mean that the artworks are dull or boring. the same artwork may look very good when viewed directly as you may get the feel of the canvas and the rich colours on personal look of it.You can also send online inquiry and discuss with the artist and online art gallery or art broker about the colours, size and condition of the artwork. If you live in the same city you can also visit the art gallery and view the artworks directly. This will help you understand the artist well and the artwork that you have selected for purchase.

Art is an aesthetic experience and I personally feel photographs do not do right justice to any painting. It may always be a similar representation of the original artwork. Some online art websites also mention to clarify this point, that photographs are only a picture of the painting and original colors may sometimes differ on direct look. Like a recent photograph I took of my latest painting, the colour used was rich ultra marine blue, (my favorite) and what comes up in the photograph? a purple shade! imagine my state, that to being an artist , what would happen for the lay person who is not so much colour conscious and is out to buy a blue and gets a purple!

Packaging of Oil Paintings for Online Selling

The most important aspect to be considered by both the buyer and the seller is about how to pack the painting for transport and send it in good condition to the buyer. Though many of us are aware that different types of packaging systems are available only those with water proof and hard packing will do for paintings.
The artist many times is not aware of all these methods and is at a tight spot to send paintings by air or ship. There are various techniques in which a painting can be wrapped and delivered to the buyer in safe conditions. Many courier and postal agencies have specialized paper packages for this purpose. These packets are water proof and also cannot be torn with handling. For paper works and art pieces such packets are very good and they also take less space as they look similar to a letter or any other postal package.

For canvas paintings special care has to be taken for transport. Even more so for works of collages and mixed media as they can get damaged by rough handling. Bubble wrap are available which is the most safe and reliable packing system as they absorb the shock and abuse during transport of the paintings.
Canvas cardboard rolls also are very easy and reliable sources for packing art works. It is advisable to roll the canvas from the opposite side to avoid crack in paints. Covering this with paper, tissue or oil sketch paper will give it extra protection. Then they can be put in the roll which is later packed with another plastic and water proof packing.
Artists and Art Dealers have to take utmost care during the transport of paintings since the buyer agrees to buy certain works because of its appearance and it would not be in good reputation for any artist to send a painting which on receiving the buyer is dissatisfied. This will create a negative impression both for the artist  as well as the art dealer.
