Original art on a Budget
I am passionate about modern art. I try to support independent artist whenever possible. But these days my budget is a little tight, so I satisfy my art desire by attending local art shows and museums. Last Saturday I met artist Sandy Meyer at the Village Art Studios in Tequesta, Florida. She had a great way of exposing he are to the financially challenged. She offered hand painted, signed postcards for only $5.00. Yes, original art work for $5.00 - score!
I know that it is a common practice for artist to sell prints of their work as post cards, but doing a mini painting is uncommon. I selected the 3 cards pictured below.

Love the vivid colors in the card above.

The colors in the card above a little more subdued - but still brilliant.

Now I am on the prowl for a frame that will do these works of art justice.
