Art and recommendations

Many portrait artists and painters rely almost exclusively on word of mouth advertising for finding new work, as their work speaks for itself and their customers almost always generate new work for them based on the quality of their paintings. Of course this means if you need to check up on such a traditional artist you need only run a quick google query to find out about them and to find examples of their work and their happy customers, because they have invariably created a site or gallery online. As with all online transactions ensure you have checked exactly who they are and what other people think of them. This can be as simple as requesting references before agreeing a price. You can also check the person out online - see this article about reverse phone lookup
