The paintings are bad. Really, really bad. If you take for example the football photography turned into a painting, from the article[1], you can see even at that level of detail, that the painting is amateurish, lacks detail, and looks worse than the photograph. Their reproductions of famous paintings are even more obviously inadequate. Which is a shame, because unlike its execution, the idea itself is very good. I am disappointed that I cannot buy myself a nice reproduction of a famous painting.

- chrischen 11y agoIt's meant to look like a painting, not a photo. That being said, we're upfront about the paintings. The gallery are actual paintings directly uploaded by the artists, from actual orders. We don't retouch the samples or anything. You either like what you see there or you don't, and we just sell what they offer.
- rdancer 11y agoI wanted to get a reproduction of "Hip hip hurra!" by Peder Severin Krøyer, few months ago. This is the original[1], and this is what China, in all seriousness, offfers[2]. Is it possible to get excellent quality reproductions, like the ones one sees in the caper movies, and how much would they cost?
