Wedding Gift Art, by Phear Loathing on Jul 2, 2013 0:01:31 GMT 1, So as the only person that many friends know that seriously collects art, it is often requested that I buy art as a wedding gift. However, I find this somewhat of a difficult task. I don't think they realize they aren't going to get the kind of stuff that is up on my personal walls for a wedding gift.
What are some artists that are relatively cheap and have some good works that would be nice for a newly wed couple?
One of my best friends, who I will be the best man for this fall, definitely excepts some art. so maybe something a bit more special for him and his lady.

Wedding Gift Art, by chichi carter on Jul 2, 2013 4:00:01 GMT 1, Quetzal Woman by Stinkfish. Limited to 20, 20,25'' by 15,5'' (not too big so not too expensive to frame), silkscreen over giclee combo. The print has a wedding theme to it! I have one for sale in mint condition. Asking 95$ usd plus shipping for it. It comes with a c.o.a. PM me if you're interested. Good luck on your quest!

Wedding Gift Art, by randomname on Jul 2, 2013 23:36:42 GMT 1, Here's kind of what I was thinking. These are the originals to show the frames, but the prints are almost identical.
Prints go for $125 US when they're released. Ebay isn't too much higher.

Wedding Gift Art, by twist65 on Jul 2, 2013 23:56:50 GMT 1, I always feel funny buying art for someone elses home, i'd try and get something small in case they're not too keen and want to stick it in the downstairs loo or something!
Keep an eye on Mr Bingo's twitter and see if you can bag them a Hate Mail postcard. But personally i'd go for this.. =]
