Originals in this selection, Acrylic on canvas, Oilcolor, 500 to 1,000 euro.
Acrylic first, then oil
Acrylic on canvas, accompanied by oil paint, joins two techniques in one picture: a quick base, a slow glaze. Paintings of this kind for 500 to 1,000 euro are for sale here, with plenty of layering.
On the canvas acrylic quickly lays down areas that are soon dry through. Oil on top brings depth, sheen and soft gradients. This order makes technical sense, because a dry acrylic film can carry oil. That is how painters combine speed with care.

Surfaces in alternation
Seen at an angle, such pictures show matte and glossy zones side by side. That gives the surface depth but can strengthen reflections. Before buying, picture the piece on your wall and check how light falls.
Notes on the description
Does the description name both materials and say something about varnish? With mixed forms this clarifies care. Ask about the stretcher bar and the hanging, so the picture ends up where it belongs.
