One material, many attitudes
Oil is the medium that has accompanied painting longest, and it stays adaptable: thinly glazed or thickly troweled, on canvas, wood or board. Oil paintings for sale between 5,000 and 10,000 euro let you compare techniques and handwritings.
Oil permits photorealism and wild gesture play alike. Because it dries slowly, it gives the painter time to set and correct transitions. That makes oil pictures of this size works of much effort and experience. A close look at brushwork and color mixing reveals how much experience a painter brings.

Cubism and more
Oil is closely tied to the planes and construction of cubism, but also to every variety of abstraction. Oil paint allows strong color values that stay stable for long after drying. If you like the traditional, choose muted tones; if you like the modern, strong contrasts and free forms.
Hung well, kept long
Oil pictures belong on interior walls, away from heating and windows with strong sun. Ask about varnish and drying time, and have condition and signature documented.
