Default Need help choosing art for my house $$ to winner

I would like to buy 1 or 2 paintings for my house. Will ship $20 on either Absolute or Party to anyone who discovers a painting that I go on to buy. I am particularly interested in landscapes and city scenes. I dont really own any proper art only prints. I will probably end up getting an Alexei Butirskiy and would appreciate comments/opinions of which of his paintings you personally like best. They can be found at this site http://www.whittkrauss.com/art.asp?f=&a=6&p=1 among others. This is a reasonable indication of the sort of thing im looking for. I have a budget of up to 4k per piece(dont have to be originals can be grychees or whatever they are called)

thanks for your help BBV

Buffsta

unsure if seeking out BBV's taste levels to guide me is a beat or a brag

Re: I contemplated the Edward Gordon painting previously as well when I was browsing that site and you have fairly similar taste to me.

Shadow: My mum likes Monet so im gonna pass b/c I dont want my house to look like hers lol

I like Alexei b/c his paintings are pretty dark in general if that helps anyone with suggestions.
