I think that this is a commercial painting done in a simplified technique . This class works sold from 50 to 150 bucks. Prototypes could be Western . Such work done at all times.
On Arbat Street in the '80s was a gang replicate such work . By the way, to reduce the cost of posters used to break up a stretcher with a bad primer thin fabric , not strong canvas . As a result of these pictures crumble . Therefore it is necessary to look more like than primed and what ...

Do not even mind.
But just like solidarity opinion.
Still tied to time.

End soon.

I think the West.

Brilliant! But still, who directed the artisanal craftsman ? Kalam on or what? Or the one who cheated himself badly with Calama , etc.? I personally do not come to mind. Just - a synonym for the villa serves 14 families painting class , no, I think , a gentleman even 14 class , this would not have hung up . Or would hang somewhere in the back of the empire ?

Yes, probably , amateur - the same everywhere. But it smacks of Western .

That's why I'm reminded of Gogol . People are more educated, like you explained why <! - ~ 12 ~ -> Thank you!

Firstly not craftsman , and gang led by a speculator , it seems my gear . So, do not amateur , and advanced business .
And in the West and in Russia were these combinatorial compositions performed by the simplified scheme . Even seen western video guide on making these paintings. Design techniques used - instead of a second residence on the underpainting stencils felt and marine sponges, curved wood inlay fleytsem . For 3 - 5 hours makes the picture meter format . These products are actively buying . For example, a friend of the artist on a similar amassed a sizable fortune and invested in small retail trade ( bought the concession stand .) I thought that this " genre " quickly fade away , but like met ten years ago in a very respectable way. So always buy .

There and Kalam was not necessary - any pictures from a magazine of the cards was the interpretation of these design techniques . In the course of the open market was a thick albums sources. Although the source of such products was almost unrecognizable because of the combinatorial methods of installation of the composition.

seasonal work , his wife said , abandoned long ago. Either in carpentry not
run than their party was nice, neither baskets LOZOVAYA do not knit it to anyone
is no longer necessary. A - fishing is still one new, fun - it's rugs
painting. He brought someone with trafaretki war , and since then has gone, gone , and all the
more of a whale - krasileEy typed : nowhere are , nowhere
work , one month to help the farm , just as in the hay yes cleaning , and for
then for eleven months the farm gives him a certificate that such a farmer
allowed to go about their business and for them there is no arrears . And they go around the country and
even in airplanes fly because cherish their time and money rowing
many thousands , and all carpets painted fifty rubles on any carpet
sheet of the old , which will give what do not mind - as if to draw that carpet
to one hour at most. And it carries the hope his wife that he would return and also in Ivan
farm or foot , and so too will be the dye-works . And then they will rise up from the
poverty, as it is beating children in college will be given , and instead of the old hut
rotten put new . All paint her new home pose, near the railway
roads were not at home now five thousand, as before, and twenty-five .
