Question Anyone know anything about art???

My wife is a big fan of Gary Benfield. And has hinted that she wants another one of his paintings for our bedroom. Well, her birthday is coming up in March and I want to get her a painting. Where the hell do I get one? I don't even know where to start. I don't know what is real and what is not. I don't know if I should buy it framed or rolled. I absolutely know nothing about the purchasing of any artwork. I have spent the last week looking at different websites about what is what, and still know as much as I did two weeks ago...nothing. HELP, please. Thanks.

Until I realized Patrick Nagel-**** movie artwork I used to be big into him.

Brian bought me a couple prints and had them framed at the art store.

So you can go to the art store (forget what they are called- deck the walls?) and get one framed or unframed.

BTW- ****, I know why she likes them- they are spectacular.

Deck the walls? Is that the name of a gallery?

In any case,
I would buy it framed already.
Kind of pricey though:

Wanna get me one? They are beautiful!
