Artwork
August 7th, 2008 @ 3:36 pm

So, the other day I was looking through some pages online to see if I could find some artwork to put above my desk or in the bedroom and I stumbled across this gem: Tomasz Rut and Park West Gallery. I was absolutely floored! Talk about some amazing artwork pieces they have to offer. I really enjoyed browsing through their gallery…I couldn’t believe how much stuff they had to offer; something like 6 pages of different paintings that you could purchase. I was more drawn to some of the more whimsical pieces, but all of the paintings were brilliantly done. Tomasz Rut’s artwork was brilliant too - I was most drawn to his “Equestriana” painting.

I was also pretty pleased to see that Park West Galleries had a section on what to look for in a good piece of art. Newbies like myself might pay too much for a piece of artwork when the person behind it may or may not be a quality or well-known artist. I also didn’t know that appraisals aren’t based off the appraisers knowledge, they actually have things that they go by to estimate the value of the artwork. Overall I really liked this website and I think that if someone is really looking for a stellar painting that they should check them out.

    It’s cheap, but interesting idea - you can often buy postcards of famous paintings. Take these, and buy picture frames that are a lot larger than the postcards, with lots of matting. It looks best if the frames & mats are REALLY plain (black/white) so they really display the post card. Sort of like this - http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1096/1384821531_80fd001e70_o.jpg
