Shopping List Saturday - Prints!

1)Right Before My Eyes / shelbyhealey 2)L'envol des Libellulas print / annejulie 3) IMAGINATION / dazeychic 4) Family Vacation print / matteart 5) I'll be in the clouds, said the girl / LeiLiLaBoo 6) Messenger Birds / LilyMoon

I've been looking at prints a lot this week - can you tell? Etsy is an amazing source for art - original art, prints, ACEO's...it's all there aplenty. I've focused on prints, because in the main they are an affordable way to access art. I'd love to fill my home with originals - but I would have to do it over time....a very long time!
Artists use excellent quality printers, and consider their card stock very carefully when they produce prints of their originals. In many cases, the originals can also be purchased, so of course the choice is yours!

I hope you like this selection. I've chosen pieces that make me smile, or brighten up my day - and these certainly do! Why not take a trip around the Art section over at etsy today - it really is your very own art gallery in a box!

Just had to show you these, by zukzuk (Weird Hair Feeding Birds//Masked Bear-Limited Edition Print). I received them last week, courtesy of my in-laws (thank you!), and I'm over the moon with them. Don't you just love that cheeky big old bear?! Now I just have to frame them...Ikea is calling me....

the prints you got are really nice... love the colors.
From your list, I like the "reading is cool" one... every school should have one hanging in a classroom!
