Small Businesses Ideas 035Import Oil Paintings For Profit An Alternative View
In regard to your article on importing oil paintings...
As a 'local' artist as you put it i find your encouragement of importing cheap and often poor quality oil paintings from the far east results in hindering people
like me from more commercial success.
Promoting quantity over quality dilutes the artistic skill available to the public. Ironically if quality 'local' artworks were not outcompeted by cheaper poor
quality imports then you'd find the price of good artwork would drop as more artists had more sales.
Finally you're encouraging exploiting the 'artists' in the far east by buying their work for half nothing, not to mention the cost to the environment of the long
distance shipping necessary to bring the art to the UK.
Your article insults me, but anything to make a buck, right?
