[QUOTE="mirana, post: 10475284, member: 79705"]No problem. I can tell at a glance only because I've spent my entire life immersed. I think taking painting classes really helps too just because you get to see student work and start to understand what an amateur would do...because you are one. :D But that's a lot to ask people to do so books and research is usually more attainable. I would say using Lens and asking here before a purchase are a good alternative, and if you feel you need to buy on the fly then...go with things that you think look really pleasing and are very cheap (or have a nice frame, as you said). Even if they turn out not to be professional, there is certainly a market in selling good decor works in a booth. Many people are interested in buying a painted work, regardless of who made it.
