Oil paintings come in all shapes and sizes, and may be based on
a variety of themes to appeal to all tastes. They may be painted
on different types of material, such as canvas or cardboard.
Original classic oil paintings are
among the most valuable works
of art that exist; some are valued
at millions of dollars. While a
number of valuable oil paintings
are displayed in museums, private
collectors who buy art for their
personal enjoyment or as an
investment also own some.
Depending on one's budget and tastes, there are many choices
available in today's oil painting market.
Fine art auction houses exist in
most American cities, and may be
a good starting point for serious
collectors and people buying art
as an investment. For the buyer
who cannot afford an original
Renoir or Monet, but who wants
to enjoy looking at an oil
reproduction instead of a paper
reprint, there are countless
companies that commission skilled
artists to paint such reproductions.
