EBay Auctions are a Brilliant way to purchase original art.

EBay has a huge selection of contemporary art auctions and a large "self representing artists" section. You can purchase art direct from artists all across the globe. You can buy a beautiful piece of art for your home with in minutes.

EBay is a wonderful way to purchase new original art from artists selling their work directly to buyers and collectors. You will find everything from new talent to established successful artists, artists with degrees (some not really art related!) and talented self taught artists.

Self Representing artists are artists who have chosen to not sell their art through a gallery and sell and market their art themselves. Purchasing art directly from the artist is a wonderful way of collecting art. You can talk with the artist and discover their inspiration and techniques. Click here to see a list of self representing artists who sell on eBay with links to their auctions or eBay shops.

"Rainbow Falls"

Each painting is created on stretched canvas, the painting flows over the edge of the canvas and each artwork is ready to hang without a frame.
Paintings are available direct from the artist. Commissions for a particular size and colour are also undertaken.
