Where Can I Find Cheap Paintings

I am in need of 6 paintings for dressing-up the walls of a home i'll be staging for a friend. Does anyone have any dealings with sites like Artsidewalk.com? They claim to have high-quality paintings for low prices. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe you can rent some.

Make your own like that ColorSplash guy.

or try Craigslist or freecycle

Ikea, Target, Pottery Barn, Pier 1—all these places sell framed art, ready-to-hang. Might not be the same art you'd choose to live with forever, but affordable, and with wide enough appeal for staging purposes. Interesting, affordable, original art can be purchased at: http://www.20x200.com/

Art can be rented from prop supply houses, for example: http://www.modernartforrent.com/
Textiles and wall art from fair trade sources like: http://www.tenthousandvillages.com/

Try BWAC--Van Brunt Street, in Red Hook, across from Fairway on weekends.

Support living artists!
