“The only time I feel alive is when I'm painting.”
? Vincent van Gogh
In Artspan’s selection of paintings you’ll find a huge variety of techniques, media, and subjects. Our artists work in traditional methods of oil, watercolor, and acrylic, of course, but you’ll also find digital paintings, gouache, encaustic, enamel, and even wine! Choose from a selection of originals you can buy directly from the artist using our safe and fully-integrated shopping cart, or browse fine art prints available in a choice of archival papers or canvas.
The primary tool of a painter, of course, is the brush, but every artist finds the method that suits them best…from palette knife, to sponge, right back to the simplest tool at all—the artist’s hand. Artspan’s members include sophisticated finger-painters working in fine detail as well as abstract artists expressing emotion with broad brushstrokes.

Humans paint to record and make sense of the world, and to say, “I am here.” Of course over the years painting has evolved to encompass a huge variety of sophisticated techniques and concepts, but it’s still fundamentally a means to communicate, to explore, and to announce our place in the universe.
