Originals in this selection, Acrylic, Graphic, illustrative and typographic, 2,000 to 5,000 euro.
From design to original
Illustration, lettering and pattern need a smooth surface, and acrylic provides one on wood, paper or canvas alike. Graphic and typographic acrylic paintings for sale from 2,000 to 5,000 euro are easier to sort out when you think of the support as part of the picture.
Unlike a print, an original shows handwork: slight irregularities of line, traces of overpainting and the depth of several layers. With letters and patterns especially, that is what separates it from a reproduction. That explains why these works often remain clearly legible even from far away.

Format and wall space
Typographic pieces read like lines of text: wide formats settle over doors or sofas, tall formats beside shelves. Measure the wall before you decide, and lay paper templates against it. Arrangements that follow reading direction suit them well, with rows or lines that organize the space.
What matters
Look for notes on the ground, lightfast pigments and the kind of signature. For graphic motifs, a detail photo of the edges helps.
