Elements Incorporated During Oil Painting Reproductions

By Stella Gay


Painting as an art has been put to use since the ancient times. Archaeological sites give evidence to this as the early man used paintings as well as simple drawings on their habitats and surrounding to convey massages. The art has greatly been perfected in the modern day with facilities such as art galleries put up to showcase it. Here one finds original paintings which are hard to own. Oil painting reproductions has made the dreams of owning such masterpieces possible.

The painters have a lot to consider while carrying out their work. It is definitely difficult to come up with an exact paint work as the original but similarity between it and the reproduction bridges the gap. The duplicate should therefore include every single element portrayed in the original be it the color, brush pattern or even the type of brush used.

The techniques used to come up with the original should also be the one used to make a duplicate of its own. Mechanical or any electronic device used is out of context in this procedure. One may consider making a photocopy and repainting it while making a duplicate but this is greatly discouraged as it does not promote art.

Simple components such as paint should not be altered. If for example an original was painted with high premium grade British oil paints, the duplicate should be painted using the same. This helps in preservation of authenticity as well as bringing up a sense of originality.

Oil paintings are done on premium grade commercial canvas. A painter on the side making the reproduction may want to cut the cost and instead opt to use a plain cloth in place of the canvas. The quality of the two can never be compared as premium grade canvas is professionally manufactured by experts who know the history of painting as well as want to maintain quality.

Oil coat reproductions products should also be made of same size as the first one. Size matters as it tells that every inch of a drawing is of the same dimension as that on the original. It also helps in creation of a sense of originality as a big or smaller size automatically gives a conclusion that it is fake despite it being a reproduction product.

Approvals have to be done on a reproduction before it is made available to the public. This greatly help in ensuring that all the key components are well in cooperated as well as maintaining the required standards set. Photographs of a duplicate are sent to experts where the product is expected to pass multiple strict quality control inspections for approval. When it passes this, it is considered fit for the public.

Again the price of oil art painting reproductions varies a bit from those on original works. Pricing is crucial as duplicates should never at any point be sold at prices higher than the original since it is already someone else job redone. A painter has to publicly publish their prices on their respective communication channels.
