affordably artful spaces.

modern art gallery wall. / sfgirlbybay

i love the look of a home gallery, and it’s easier to achieve than you might think. art need not be expensive — there are so many online art shops with affordable artwork these days, and i even saw recently how beautifully sarah sherman samuel framed her son’s charming artwork — you can be proud, and thrifty at the same time by framing your children’s’ work! other favorite art sources for me are etsy, the poster club, laure joliet, block shop textiles, rikkiane van kirk, a new artist bri turned me onto, jessalyn brooks and permanent press editions. i love this matisse print from art.com, too. i quite like the idea of framing vintage flash cards, too. another great resource for finding new art is the jealous curator where artist Danielle krysa rounds up some really wonderful new artists, and check her own artwork out, too! art is essentially everywhere you look — it could be an old menu, or a matchbook, or something you snap on your phone. get creative and open your eyes to the possibilities.
