Where to get affordable art prints


This print hanging in our den is by an artist called Metrofader. It's available online at Imagekind, a website where you can order prints in a variety of sizes and framing options (I ordered mine unframed and it cost a whopping $16.24. And it's even more gorgeous in person: the paper is thick, good quality stuff and the colors are rich with a velvety matte finish.) If you're an artist yourself, you can open a shop and sell your prints there, too. Some of my faves: Matasaburo Kazeno and Jason Brockert.

Thumbtack Press is another source of art prints. You don't get to choose the size print you'd like, but there are lots of interesting artists.
