IF YOU CAN GET IT FOR LESS YOU ARE GETTING LESS.
Take a look at our prices & our paintings and compare them to other similar work on ebay.
Our costs (canvas, stretcher, paint, varnish, & ebay/paypal fees) come to around £25-£35 per painting. We then charge for the time it takes to paint them. Most of our paintings are in the £80 - £100 range. So we earn around £50 - £70 for each painting we sell, and on average it takes around 8 hours per painting. Its a living, but its not a get-rich scheme. We do this because its what we love doing.
Sure you can find cheaper paintings on ebay. Why do you think they're selling them for less?
We don't ship you an unstretched canvas leaving you to pay for it to be put on a stretcher so you can hang it. All our work is ready to hang.
We don't use cheap paints that will fade if you hang them in daylight. We use Chromacryl, Daler Rowney & similar top brand high permanence paints.
We don't leave our paintings unvarnished, so the first time you try to dust them you get streaky marks that won't come off. And we don't varnish them before the paint is dry so that in time, as the paint continues to dry at a different rate to the varnish you end up with evil cracks all across the paint surface.
WHAT WE DO:
All our works are individually signed and dated. All are completely original and unique, varnished for protection, and are delivered complete on stretcher frames suitable to either hang straight on the wall, or to be framed in a more traditional frame of your choice.
ABOUT US
Spiritoftheplace are a group of professional artists who have been selling and exhibiting throughout the UK since 1990. We regularly carry out commissions for companies, local government organisations and for individuals. We believe in pricing our works realistically so that they can reach a wider public than the usual art gallery crowd. We know that our paintings will be appreciated for years to come, and that many of our earlier works have now risen in value far above the prices we still ask for new works, but as artists we prefer our works to have relevance to real people in the real world.
BUY WITH CONFIDENCE
Because we realise that art is entirely a matter of subjective taste we offer a 7 day no quibble return policy with full refund upon return of the picture in its original packing.
