Art Doesn't Get Any Finer

Ape with Asparagus painting

I will be moving into my new apartment soon, so I finally have an excuse to buy a painting from the ALU Arts ebay store. I can't decide on just one though. I've narrowed it down to two. Either the one above, or this one:

Ape with Pickle painting

How am I supposed to choose? Why do I have to choose? The paintings are a frickin' steal, ranging from between $30-60, but the seller's based in China so the shipping more than doubles the cost. They are reproductions of Donald Roller Wilson's amazing work. Cheap, wonderful Chinese reproductions. Each painting is credited to "Skilled Artist." Well, Skilled Artist is very talented and has a bright future ahead of him! I just hope that he's not an assembly line of ten-year old girls working in a surrealist Chinese sweatshop.
