    There seem a lot to be reproductions on canvas these days. They have all the marks of an original painting. How do you differentiate those? Ty!

    Thanks for the video! I have come across two identical paintings (both oil on canvas, one framed, one unframed) both claiming to be originals of a mid-century American artist. I love the piece but don't know how to tell which, if either, is the original. One is being sold directly by the owner and the other I found in an antique store. Any tips? I don't want to upset either the owner or store manager by impugning they are selling a fake, but clearly both can't be original. Help!

    Do you know anything about The Emerson Collection? I obtained a scenic painting with a signature of Emerson. No first or last initial. It has all the bullet points you mentioned. Also has a piece of paper attached to the back. Explains how it was selected as part of a collection.

    Hey there I’m new at this and need advice. Bought at a garage sale 2 framed 6 1/2 x 6 1/2 framed floral arrangements signed at the bottom Viv (Vivian Flasch I assume). They are behind glass sign at the bottom Viv no numbers. They are textured with some material forming a flower on cardboard where the flower sticks out it’s not paint. Is this original?

One rider has fallen from his horse while jumping a fence. I have tried to find an image of it, but could only find a description. I live in Nashville, Tennessee. Any thoughts as to how I could verify its authenticity? Thank you.

If so, can you please share this info? Thank you very much!

      They can print a copy on canvas with giclee printer, it is very common, it sprays the ink so there are no dots when magnified, the ink tends to soak in the canvas more than if it was brushed

      Sometimes painting depending on detail and if what the painting is of is popular at the time of selling can still pull a few bucks even if its a well known artist. I sold an oil painting of a spin of the " Fox Hunt" a few months ago for 400 bucks it was just signed nathan but it was well done on board and by the frame if i had to guess late 1800s to early 1900s so just depends i probably could of git more if i was more patient but i got lucky and snagged it fir 15 bucks originally

    One easy way is to heat nacho cheese up, and drip it in the painting. If it is a valuable original, the cheese will turn differt colors due to the paint melting. If it is a fake, the cheese can be wiped off, and no color change.

    Can a printed be given texture for example can a printed be super imposed on a canvas
    I just bought a painting at a thrift shop and it was signed by an American fine artist painted around 1996
    There are no markings on the back of the painting, or none that I can see because the canvas back is covered
    The framed piece is roughly the size of the original art work, and it is textured, but for some reason it doesn’t look real to me,,, but then again, I don’t know anything about acrylic paint, and how it dries
    Any help appreciated thank you
    I only paid $10 for it

    @eddievenuto1862 Před rokem

    It seems like an original painting looks different than a painting that's printed painting. Usually an original will have brush strokes and it will look original. And a lot of times a reprint will look like it was reprinted. But not all the time.

    oh dear, yes! Limited edition prints were the thing. Also Dali, especially the later years. Would not touch with a ten foot pole. Throw in the work by these lovely ladies, just because there are brush strokes, make sure they are all over the painting. The lovely Thomas Kincade has lots of people thinking they have "Original art" but it's just a few brush strokes OVER a painting. Having worked in a gallery, so many hopefuls with these slightly touched reproductions "But I can SEE the brush strokes!"czcams.com/video/z2R6gcGuNTE/video.html

  • @RyanAnthonyDigitalMedia

    Having a piece of art behind glass doesn’t signify if it’s original or not. That only applies if it’s an oil or acrylic painting. A lot of graffiti artists & street artists do work on paper or watercolor, & those are always behind glass. I have a few originals that are behind glass.
