[QUOTE="Debora, post: 3551002, member: 1476"]We see a lot of factory art here. You can search for old threads for other examples but... Generally, factory art is -- to quote myself -- produced with minimum effort for maximum effect. (If you look closely at your work, you can see how quickly it would have been done.) The "artists" who produce factory art have some facility for copying but lack formal art training. (If you look closely at your work, you can see how the linear perspective is wonky and some of the details are sloppy like the street lamp that hovers on a slim pole two stories high.) Also, the same types of scenes are reproduced over and over such as "Alpine Scene with Chalet," "Rocky Mediterranean Coastline with Villas" and yours which I always describe as "Rainy Night in Paris Street Scene." (And if you look closely, you can see that the works all have an unconvincing feeling to them which shows that they don't depict a location actually observed by the artist.)
