How to Find Inexpensive Artwork Online on Amazon

Updated on September 15, 2011

Art is Easy to Order

If you're looking for artwork to add to the appeal of your home or office, but don't have thousands of dollars to spend, Amazon has a selection that might surprise you. Most people don't think of Amazon as a potential online art dealer, but the choices of prints, reproductions, and modern art, both renowned and virtually unknown, are enough to catch one's eye. Add to this the ease of 1-click ordering and shipping, and suddenly buying artwork on Amazon becomes a great idea.

If you have bare walls or if people are always asking you when you're going to finish moving in, consider adding relatively inexpensive prints. It's probably about time you put something up.  Your home should reflect your tastes, so weigh your lifestyle and your preferences before making a choice on style.

Order Prints of Classic Art

Prints might be the way to go if you're looking for a large piece of artwork, but you're working with a small budget. Amazon offers a huge selection of famous and classic prints and mosaics, in a full range of sizes. If you a lover of the masters, including Van Gogh, Rembrandt, Miyamoto Musashi, and Pablo Picasso, consider purchasing either a poster-size print or a smaller, framed piece of art. Similarly, if you'd rather purchase a lesser-known print, Amazon has a wide selection of those, too.

Amazon's art is printed on high-grade paper, and if you order a framed piece, it is assembled on site by professionals. Instantly add a conversation-starter to any room in your home by adding a gorgeous print on Amazon. Since Amazon offers approximately 400,000 distinct prints, you're bound to find something suiting your taste.

Art Reproduction Oil Paintings

If you'd rather have an actual painting over a print, but your budget stubbornly disagrees, consider buying a reproduction oil painting from Amazon. The selection is surprisingly wide, and the quality of these paintings is naturally superior to that of a print. It's possible that your guests will have that "I've seen that painting before" feeling when contemplating your purchase.

A good place to start might be to browse original artwork, find an artist or a style that moves or inspires you, and then see whether a reproduction exists. For many, this is the only way to afford to hang such likenesses in the home. In general, a reproduction oil painting is a suitable choice for those who want a classic look without a classic price.


Modern Abstract Art

Amazon has a range of choices of modern abstract art. Many of these paintings are intended to cover a significant amount of space in your home. They are often pre-stretched and ready to hang with no frame required. Choose a color and a size that works well over your living room couch or your mantle, with the knowledge that these works are hand-painting oil on canvas.

A piece of artwork this size can radically change the tone of any room.  Consider the colors and style currently in the room before opting for a piece of this magnitude.
