The 10 Best Online Sources for Affordable Art
Finding great art pieces can be an extremely difficult task. Since art, unlike furniture and lighting, is purely decorative, there is a lot of pressure for you to really love it. Artwork is insanely personal and sometimes can be expensive. That’s why I have rounded up my 10 favorite online sources for affordable art to take some of the pressure off.
1. Minted
Minted sells limited edition prints from dozens of independent artists. Regular design and art challenges are held for designers and artists all around the world. After the public votes on which submissions to produce, Minted sells the winning entries as fine paper products and art and every purchase supports the independent artist.

Society6 uses a non-traditional approach and allows artists to showcase their work by offering it as prints, phone cases, home decor, clothing, and more.
