Yesterday evening, a student by the name of Avi, from the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem, found his way to our front door, in the quest to sell some artwork.
He had a very large collection of paintings, ready for either stretching or frame mounting.
A majority were textured, along with a few non-textured simple oil paintings.
After a quick show of all the paintings we narrowed it down to 4 favourites.
Not having a great deal of experience in artwork, I was not sure what to look for when buying these sorts of pieces. Are there even rules to consider when buying? Things that crossed my mind were, “where would I display this?; will I stretch it? or frame it?; does it suit the location environment?”. All difficult questions to answer as a first time buyer, so I just went with my gut feeling with what made me most happy when viewing. Eventually, narrowing further from 4 down to 1.
ENDLESS FOREST
I’ll post some more images, once the painting has found a place on the wall.
Ha Ha!
I had the same guy call, and guess what? I bought the same picture.
I think they must be the result of a special printing process, I can’t tell the difference from a true oil painting.
I bought two more from him, I must be a real sucker!!
Regards,
A.Tyson
Looks like Avi has been making the rounds! lol.
I thought I had a one off 
I guess I paid too much too. lol.
But now it makes mine feel not so special
