 My areas of expertise are painting (especially oil and acrylic), drawing (especially pencil, color pencil). I have a deep knowledge of the properties of paint (pigment opacities, transparencies, color strength, lightfastness) and their use through history; as well as contemporary uses. I can be of great assistance with questions of mixing medias (Such as mixing color pencils with oil paint). I will say "I don't know" if I do not know the answer of a question.

 I can answer ALL questions related to watercolor paintings, except appraisal or artist identification. I can answer general questions about oil, acrylic, Chinese painting, and other media. I am NOT an art appraiser at all for any kind. I can only answer questions in aspects of materials, techniques, and critiques. I do NOT have the access to records of auction, painting pricing, or artist files & works, unlike art gallery dealers or art appraisers. I would not know how much an art piece is worth, but I am only an expert in the "art form" but nothing to do with VALUE.

Hello Brian, I was not able to find anything specific about your paintings, I did find one that sold by that artist. However, I think yours may be of more value since it was included in that book.

David, When i was saying that Dufy used ink, it referred to water based media only, such as watercolor and ink paintings. When he used ink, he was still using brushes, but not pen. Pen would not make
