How can you tell the difference between an oil painting and an acrylic painting?
Hold the painting at an angle and look at the paint’s texture on the canvas. If it’s highly textured and looks very layered, the painting is likely an oil painting. Acrylic paint dries smooth and somewhat rubbery-looking (unless an additive has been used to give the paint a thicker texture).
Can you sell a reproduction of an oil painting?
Our oil painting reproductions are all painted to museum quality standards. We do not sell printed art, canvas transfers or canvas art that is machine generated.

Where can I find the artist’s name on a painting?
In some cases, information about the painting – such as the title, year created and artist’s name – is printed on the back. If the work is framed, remove the protective backing paper – you may find the artist’s printed name underneath.
