Are these original paintings or prints?
Every piece in the Outsider Images catalog is an original, one of a kind acrylic painting by James Orellana. Each painting exists as a single physical canvas. There are no print editions at this time.
How many of each painting are available?
One. Each original sells exactly once. When a piece shows as sold, it is gone.
Is James Orellana a trained artist?
Yes. James holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Painting from the University of Houston (2000) and has been exhibiting in national and regional shows since 1982. His work is expressive and visually unconventional by aesthetic choice, not by training deficit.
Are acrylic paintings a lasting medium?
Acrylic paintings are durable and colorfast when kept out of direct sunlight and extreme humidity. Handle an original by the edges or frame, not the painted surface.
