Ever dreamed of owning a priceless work of art and perhaps even having it in your own home? But then you realized such a dream can usually never be possible due to the fact that such paintings are usually restricted to museums or else have a price tag that is completely out of your reach. But maybe the art lover inside you isn't satisfied. So what can you do?

Well there is a specific field of painting that has emerged to meet this need which is known as art reproduction. What exactly is art reproduction? It is the process of skilfully recreating a painting completely 100% from scratch. The end result is that a perfect copy of the original painting is created. In fact only a trained eye with the right equipment would ever notice that the painting isn't real.

Through this process art lovers can hang world famous paintings such as the Mona Lisa or Night Watch in their own living room. Of course this process wasn't exclusively used for the creation of artwork to be hung in the home and has several other purposes. One such purpose is to create a duplicate version of the original painting for public display when the original is too priceless to display publicly.

Another less noble use of art reproductions is that of creating fakes that could be passed on to unsuspecting buyers as the real thing. However regardless of how good the artist is no fake can escape detection by an expert.

The budding painter might also try their own hand at art reproduction and create a recreation of their own. But for those who have no artistic talent of their own the option of purchasing such reproductions is far more alluring.

A variety of online art galleries offering art reproductions can be found that offer not only offer reproductions but also some original works of art as well. For those who don't have the time to go looking for art the option of buying art online is also available bringing with it greater convenience.
