Custom reproduction paintings are a beautiful way to decorate your home or office. You can create a serene mood with Monet’s Waterlilies, or add some upbeat energy to your room with Kandinsky. The ability to order high-quality copies of famous works has made it possible for people who love art but cannot afford an original to have a piece that is close enough to the real thing that they can admire the brush strokes, style, and other details that make each painting unique.

Custom reproduction paintings with the customer contacting a factory directly to ask for quotes and images of past paintings that have been created from photos. The customer is also asked to describe their preferences for the style and size of their artwork.

Custom Reproduction Paintings Tailored to Your Taste

Once the quote has been agreed upon, a deposit is paid and work begins on your art reproduction. The factory will usually send QC (Quality Control) photos to the customer to show the progress of their painting. The customer is allowed to request touchups or other changes at this time. Once the painting has been approved it will be finished and shipped to the customer.

One common question is whether the replica paintings sold by Chinese factories are authentic. I have been to Dafen village in China and watched artisans crank out paintings quickly and cheaply, so it is possible that some of the websites selling these fakes are legitimate. However, most of the Chinese “art factories” are sweatshops, with artists cranking out work like industrialized paint by numbers.
