      Realism

      Encyclopedia Britannica defines realism as, the accurate, detailed, unembellished depiction of nature or of contemporary life. Realism rejects imaginative idealization in favour of a close observation of outward appearances.

      We agree but define it more simply as looking for a painting that looks as close as the real thing as a photograph.  Browse our collection of Realist painters that will make you take a double-take on if they are canvases or photographs!

        Q. How are you sizing the artwork?

        A. We use inches (H x W) and only list the canvas size without a frame.

        Q. What does Framed or Unframed mean?

        A. Unframed implies the artist intends the painting to be displayed without a frame. Traditionally, the canvas is finished on the sides with a black edge, or the image wraps around to the back.

        Framed implies that the artists intends the artwork to be framed, and the price includes the cost of framing by our gallery. We do not list the framed size, as you may choose framing options, depending on availability. Restrictions apply.

        Q. Can paintings listed as Unframed be framed?

        A. In many cases, yes. Please send us an enquiry regarding the painting you wish to be framed. Please note, the cost of custom framing is not listed on our website.

        Q. Can a piece of art be shipped from your other location for a viewing?

        A. Artwork transfers between our galleries can be arranged depending on availability and being part of an active exhibition. There is a nominal fee to cover to cost of shipping and handling.  *Conditions & restrictions apply.
