Art for the Recession-ista

Last summer I started creating a few paintings using a 5x5 gallery wrapped canvas.  Because they were small and had deep stretchers, they easily stood by themselves.  As they dried, or always.  I realized there are so many other advantages of these little works of art.  

For the collector, they are affordable, make great gifts, and you don’t have to worry about having enough wall space (or walls).

For the artist, it is a great way to hone your skills, work out color harmonies, and easily create a series.

Many other artists work in small formats.  My friend Dianne Webb’s work can be seen at Voila Gallery, Wickford, RI
