Why our oil paintings are different

Painted by hand.
Framed by our woodworkers.

Your oil painting is only started once you order it, and one of the collective's senior artists paints it by hand in Binh Thanh, Ho Chi Minh City.

The archival canvas print shows the same image, printed rather than painted, so its surface is flat. Both versions come rolled, on a wooden stretcher, or framed.

Painted to order
Every oil painting order goes to one of the collective's senior artists.
Frames made in-house
The collective's woodworkers make the stretchers and the frames.

About this painting

The story behind this artwork.

A blue train under red flags and green leaves

The train is the one cool block in a warm scene: blue and cream, with a headlight that glows white at the end of the track. Above it, rows of red flags are strung across the street, and lanterns hang from the shopfronts on one side.

Green trees arch over the track and frame the train like a doorway. The rails and the stones between them lead the eye straight to the headlight. People gather beside the track at small stools and tables, close enough to the train to show how narrow the passage is.

Red as the main colour, blue as the point of rest

Red carries the picture: flags, hanging lanterns and a long red hanging garland fill much of the air, and the light coming through them is warm. The blue of the train stops that red from taking over, and the green leaves give the eye a place to rest.

On a wall, this palette suits a living room or dining area with cream, warm white or soft grey walls, where the red can stand out. The upright format fits a slim wall space, next to a door or at the end of a corridor, where the rails pull the eye toward the headlight.

FAQ

How much of the picture is red?

A large share. Red flags fill the sky above the track and lanterns hang from the shopfronts. The train's blue and the green leaves keep the picture balanced, so it reads as warm rather than heavy.

Is the train the brightest point?

Yes. The headlight is the lightest spot, and the cream front of the train catches light too. Everything else is slightly darker and warmer, so the eye goes to the train first.

Can you make out the people beside the track?

They are painted as anonymous figures in everyday clothes, gathered along the edge of the track, with a figure holding up a phone close to the viewer. They give scale to the narrow passage and the train.

What do the lights near the trees look like?

Small warm lights are strung between the trees and lanterns, glowing in yellow and orange. They are soft points of light, not sharp detail, and they echo the red of the flags.
