This past Saturday Justin and I became fancy art owners. =) We kept seeing ads for a starving artist show in Salt lake where you could get a paintings for as low as $7 and nothing over $60. We were intrigued and thought, "Let's see what's there." I have always wanted a cool original piece of art in my house whether made by me or someone else. We had fun looking around and there were a ton of people there. In the end we each picked one that we liked best.
This one is mine.=)
Hehe I like how I got the t.v. antenna in there. This is the view from the couch.
This is the one Justin liked the best.
There were a lot of copy cat paintings mostly from Van Gogh. Such as Starry Night, the Sunflower one and the Iris one. Also a lot of the same painting but in different sizes. We got some originals I believe, which is what I was wanting. You could also get the painting framed right there at a pretty reasonable price. Whatever was the price of the painting the frame was the same. We opted out of the frames, mostly because we didn't see one we liked and thought that they looked just as cool without.
We fortunately received a late wedding gift from one of Justin's mom's friends so we used that money to buy our art. Two awesome paintings of good size for 80 bucks. Not to shabby. We are excited for the show to come next year.
