Mister Daniel is the one not communicating. He is the one that is not answering the messages that I send. ha ha, and now I get only 4 stars for communication'?. It is very hard to me to try to be nice now. But for the rest same as before: Thank you for your liking my artwork, Mister Daniel Consigli. But I dont like that you put me down as someone trying to cheat and make the paintings look bigger. First of all, I have asked you twice if everything was OK and got no answer. I did not know that you seriously lacking communication skills. I live in Europe and put all measurements in centimetres, it is Artfinder that does the conversions into inches. Instead of communicating with me about this in a more private platform, Mister Daniel chose to put this in the review and accusing me wrongly of not accurate listing. And for all the work I do, and with me many other artist, to get all the details correct it is painful to be false accused of cheating! For your information Mister Daniel: In the 'Quick View' of listings, the numbers are rounded up, so for this artwork, you see 6" x 6" on the Quick View, while the full product page of the listing had the complete breakdown of dimensions. Same for the frame. You are a big fast with blaming others. The picture of the frame is there! It is the second picture if you go to the “full product” page, but it is obvious that you have not done that. In the ' Quick View' of listings there is no frame, we are asked by Artfinder to have one full front picture without frame and that is what you see in the Quick View. The frame is handmade and specially designed for my work, it is made with love and care, but it cannot be according to everybody's taste, but the frame is also there to protect the paintings in the transport. Also maybe you are not aware of the fact that you can send the paintings back within 14 days, so that is also why it is important to communicate. Now it is too late, you cannot send them back. If you don't like them you can put them in the bin, or give them to someone else, who does appreciate them. This is the first time I get this complain, while I sold more then 20 paintings of this size to the US. So one advice Mister Daniel: if ever you buy another artwork from an artist in Artfinder: communicate if there is something bothering you! Instead of blaming the other for not communicating with you!

Colors are wonderful, painting kills are solid. The art was described as 6 x 6 “, it’s 4 1/4” square, and with the frame 5 1/2” square only and not a matching frame, disappointing as I had thought the four pictures would be larger. Down grade for listing accuracy only, otherwise painting is good
