Compared with Singulart.
Singulart is a serious curated gallery, run from Paris, representing thousands of artists across more than a hundred countries, with original contemporary work in painting, sculpture, photography and more. Of the big platforms it is the closest to us in spirit: someone chooses, and the choosing shows.
Breadth, or depth
The difference is the size of the field. Singulart covers the whole of contemporary art, with originals as the core offer, priced accordingly. We cover one corner of it, deliberately: paintings of the living world, botanicals, birds and animals, gardens, land and water, in oil and watercolour. If the wall in question needs abstraction, Singulart has thousands of options; we have none.
Price of entry
Gallery originals start at gallery prices, which is fair for what they are. We sell originals too, as they arrive, and archival prints of every painting in the collection from $49: giclée on Hahnemühle German Etching, sizes fitted to the painting, solid wood frames. A serious painting on the wall does not have to wait for an original's budget.
And the standing rule, stated for clarity rather than contrast: nothing we sell is generated, nothing AI-assisted is accepted, and every work is a painting by a named artist in a stated medium.

Of Nature and Art, if
