Questions & Answers
Can I view your artwork in person before purchasing it?
Yes, of course! I cordially invite you to experience my works in person in my studio in Erfurt. It's something truly special to see art in the original – the colors, the structure, the charisma are best appreciated in direct contact. I look forward to welcoming you personally and providing you with personalized advice.
Do I need an appointment to view the property – and how can I arrange one?
Since my current exhibitions always only show a small selection of my work, I recommend making an appointment in advance. This way, I can specifically prepare works that interest you. Simply contact me by email, phone, WhatsApp, or at www.nikolauskriese.de – together we'll find a suitable time for your visit.
Are there any special exhibitions or events I can attend?
Yes, I regularly organize art openings, studio tours, and smaller art events. If you'd like to receive a personal invitation, just send me your email address, and I'll send you an invitation in due time. I look forward to speaking with you in person!
Do you offer customized artwork according to my individual ideas?
Yes, it's possible! As an artist with over 30 years of experience, I offer you the opportunity to create custom commissions. Whether portraits, landscapes, or abstract compositions – together we will develop a work of art that precisely matches your ideas. I place great value on close collaboration to best realize your wishes and ideas.
Can you recommend artwork that fits my interior design style?
Of course! My goal is to create a perfect harmony between art and furnishings. I'm happy to offer you a free consultation—by phone, email, or in person at my studio in Erfurt. Together, we'll find the perfect work of art to enhance your space and emphasize your personal touch.
Are there options to order artwork in different sizes?
Yes, I offer some artworks in various sizes, from small formats to large-format paintings with side lengths starting at 300 cm . Whether you want a small piece of art for a cozy room or an impressive large-format piece for a representative area – I can create the perfect piece for you.
How can I be sure that a work of art will retain its value or even increase?
As a freelance artist, I've been pleased to observe that some of my works have increased in value over the years—especially those that have become part of important collections or have been exhibited publicly. Nevertheless, art is, first and foremost, expression and passion. Its value may increase, but every investment in art remains somewhat speculative. I recommend that you let your gut feeling guide you—because a genuine connection to a work is priceless.
Do you offer advice on selecting artwork as a long-term investment?
Yes, of course! If you're interested in art not only for aesthetic reasons, but also as a collector or investment, I'm happy to personally advise you. With my background as a professional artist and my keen sense of development, material value, and artistic relevance, I'll help you make an informed decision – authentic, transparent, and personalized.
How should I store an acrylic painting?
Acrylic paintings should be stored in a dry place, protected from light, and at a constant room temperature (ideally 18–22°C). Ensure that the humidity is not too high (approximately 45–55%) to prevent mold growth.
How do I clean a dusty acrylic painting?
Remove dust with a soft, dry microfiber cloth or a clean, soft brush. Gently wipe the surface. Do not use water or detergent, as acrylic paint can be sensitive to moisture.
Can I wipe an acrylic painting with a damp cloth?
Only to a limited extent. If the painting is coated with a protective varnish, a slightly damp cloth can be used carefully (!) – but only in specific areas and without applying pressure. If there is no varnish, avoid using moisture to avoid damaging the paint.
Should an acrylic painting be framed?
A frame is helpful for protecting the painting from impact, dust, and UV radiation—especially for unsealed works. A glass frame is also recommended for acrylic on paper or cardboard (with spacers to prevent contact).
How do I protect an acrylic painting from light and UV rays?
Avoid direct sunlight. Acrylic paints can fade or discolor over time due to UV rays. UV-protective glazing or special museum glass will help preserve the painting for the long term.
Does an acrylic painting need to be varnished?
Not mandatory, but recommended. A varnish protects the surface from dust, UV light, and mechanical influences. It can significantly improve the appearance of glossy or heavily pigmented paintings, especially.
What to do if the surface is damaged?
Scratches, chips, or dull spots should be assessed by a professional (restorer or experienced artist). Attempts to repair them yourself with varnish or adhesives can do more harm than good.
Does insurance for acrylic paintings make sense?
Yes, especially if it has a higher material or sentimental value. Document the work with photos, information about the artist, technique, and year of creation—and keep proof of purchase or authenticity.
How should I store an oil painting?
Oil paintings should be stored in a dry, well-ventilated room at a constant temperature (ideally 18–21°C) and humidity (approximately 45–55%). Avoid direct sunlight, high humidity, and extreme temperature fluctuations.
How do I clean a dusty oil painting?
Light dust can be gently removed with a soft, dry brush (e.g., goat hair) or a microfiber cloth. Do not apply pressure. Never use water, cleaning agents, or household remedies.
Can I clean a dirty or yellowed painting myself?
No. The cleaning of heavily soiled or yellowed oil paintings should be left to a professional restorer. Incorrect cleaning attempts can permanently damage the artwork.
Should an oil painting be framed?
Yes. A frame protects the painting from mechanical damage and environmental influences. Make sure the painting is not directly against the glass surface when using glazing (e.g., with spacers or museum glass).
How do I protect an oil painting from sunlight and UV radiation?
Do not hang oil paintings in direct sunlight. UV radiation can bleach colors and make the varnish brittle. Indirect, diffused lighting or special UV-filtering glasses or lamps are ideal.
How often should a painting be re-varnished?
A varnish protects the painting and intensifies the colors. Over the decades, it can yellow or become brittle. Renewal should only be performed by a professional conservator—approximately every 50 to 100 years, depending on the condition.
What should I do if there is damage such as cracks or peeling paint?
Contact a qualified restoration workshop immediately. Never attempt to repair such damage yourself—this could cause irreparable damage to the artwork.
Does it make sense to insure an oil painting?
Yes. Art insurance is particularly advisable for valuable or sentimentally significant paintings. Document the work (photos, description, provenance) and keep all records carefully.
How do I ensure the quality of my artwork?
Since 1995, I have dedicated myself to painting with passion and precision. Each of my works is created in my studio in Erfurt and is produced using high-quality materials such as the finest canvas and brilliant pigments. With my training as a theater painter and over 18,000 hours of experience, I guarantee craftsmanship excellence and artistic depth.
Can I exchange or return a work of art if it doesn't meet my expectations?
Your satisfaction is my priority. If a work doesn't meet your expectations, I offer a hassle-free return or exchange within 20 days of receipt. For commissioned works, you will receive drafts in advance to ensure the final painting meets your expectations.
What security measures are in place during the payment process?
I rely on secure and encrypted payment portals to protect your data as best as possible. Whether credit card, PayPal, or bank transfer – your transactions are safe with me.
How secure is the shipping of my artwork?
I have been shipping my works worldwide since 2005. Each painting is carefully packaged and fully insured. Should any damage occur, you will receive either a refund or a replacement of equal value.
Are there guarantees for the longevity of the works of art?
Although I cannot offer a formal guarantee, I use only high-quality materials and proven techniques to ensure the longevity of my works for decades.
Can I view the artworks in person before purchasing them?
I would be delighted to invite you to my studio in Erfurt to experience my work in person. To arrange a visit, please schedule an appointment via my website or contact me directly.
Do you also offer custom paintings?
Yes, I specialize in custom commissions—from portraits to landscapes to abstract compositions. Together, we develop your desired motif, which I then implement with the utmost care and creativity.
How are the prices for your artworks determined?
The prices of my works are determined by several factors: the materials used, the size of the work, the amount of work involved, and my artistic background. As a full-time artist with many years of experience and over 18,000 hours of studio practice, I invest a great deal of time, skill, and passion into each painting. I value fair, transparent prices that reflect the quality and uniqueness of my artwork.
Are there installment payment options for more expensive works?
Yes, I want art to remain accessible to as many people as possible. That's why I offer individual installment payment plans if needed—uncomplicated and tailored to your needs. Just contact me if you're interested in a work.
Which payment methods do you accept?
Currently, you can pay by bank transfer, cash, PayPal, or credit card (Stripe). If you prefer a different payment method, we're sure we can find a solution. Above all, I want you to feel well looked after every step of the way.
