Etsy has been my go-to place so far - Emily, I'd recommend searching the artwork section with something specific in mind, like painting or photography and then narrow it down even further by whatever subject matter you might want - bird, ocean, etc. My favorite artwork I've gotten so far has been an original collage painting by Paintbox.etsy.com. So affordable and cheerful!! <br />Another wall decoration I rely on are cute vintage plates to hang on the wall - add great pops of color and texture for cheap!Careyhttp://www.adriannedesigns.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481334885690177821.post-6905909086817242452009-10-14T16:27:24.104-04:002009-10-14T16:27:24.104-04:00I always love to purchase fro the artist or galler...I always love to purchase fro the artist or gallery if I can...but for now settle for Ebay or Etsy as an option. :)<br />I like your art!<br />Jen Ramos<br />'Cards & Prints You'll Love...'<br /><a href="http://www.madebygirl.com" rel="nofollow">www.madebygirl.com</a> <br /><a href="http://madebygirl.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">madebygirl.blogspot.com</a>Jen of MadeByGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16679479589202186024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481334885690177821.post-48279513709891605342009-10-13T08:36:55.064-04:002009-10-13T08:36:55.064-04:00I totally agree that art is a personal thing.

(Especially cheesey things like "Starry Night" from Van Gough!)<br /><br />A photographer friend recommends taking close up photos of beautiful finds in nature and having them blown up on canvases. There are a number of sites that offer this service at reasonable rates.Karen https://www.blogger.com/profile/02441070110507014088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481334885690177821.post-8227999015284317582009-10-12T15:05:22.059-04:002009-10-12T15:05:22.059-04:00I'm with you.
