Do the artists here copy famous paintings?

Ha ha you're funny asking this question.... What isn't copied in Asia???? YES!! You can find copies of famous pantings. Many places around dist 1. Any art shop you see the paintings are copied if they are not a Vietnamese panting. I am confident you can find what you are looking for quite easily. Take a look around.

All sorts of copy painters in the tourist dives of TP HCM.

I gave one gifted copy painter a photograph of my parents and he did such a professional job, and so realistically, that my Mother kept it on her wall to her dying day as she said it was such a good likeness of my Father, who predeceased her.

You should check out Maison Chance.  They're an organization that helps teach disabled people a skill trade which includes painting.  They do all types of painting and they do custom based on request.  I visited their village today and the paintings they have on display are beautiful, plus you'll be helping the charity too.  By the way they also take in orphans and teach poor kids.  I'm actually volunteering to teach the kids English next week. 

Here's their website with phone number and address.

Tran Phu Str is the best choice. orther shop on Nguyen Hue, Le Loi is much more expensive. They can copy any in need
