The warning tells us to wait for the cashiers check to clear the bank, the bank has its money and then ship the item.

This will not be sufficient to protect you. Talk with your bank about what it means when they tell you that "the check has cleared". There's been a lot of discussion relating to these scams about banks that tell their customer that the check has "cleared" and then turns out to be a bogus check. You're still out the money (the bank won't take responsibility for it) and you've already shipped the painting. Ask the client to wire the money to your bank, perhaps.
