the walls on my room have always been pretty boring, and I really want to prettify them.

preferably pretty large ones. if there's any ninjas here who do art, i'd also be happy to buy prints, if you've got some available on some site like deviantart
If you're still looking there's a bunch of places you can look, they're all in the US though.

http://thumbtackpress.com - Really affordable prints, Nick Dewar has some really stylish prints here, but there are loads of different styles.

http://www.society6.com/prints/categories - A load of variety here too.

http://www.etsy.com - It takes a little bit more searching here to find anything decent. I found an awesome one-off drawing out of somebody's sketchbook for £10 though.

A few tips:

This does not do it justic at all. You have to see the real peice to appreciate it fully, and when you learn of Kuniyoshi's techniques it makes it even better.

Another one.

Dali, Gala decomposed or something like that. Atomic structure.

This is from a book-- Drawing Autism
Mostly young artists



Emily L. Williams, They Take Away Your Razors, Your Shoelaces, & Your Belt

Image

Jessica Park: The Mark Twain House with the Diamond Eclipse and Venus, 1999

Image

Charles D. Topping: The Death of Love #373: Desiccated Love, 2009

Image

Wout Devolder, Werewolf (2008, at age 14)

What was the inspiration for this piece?

On May 8, 2008, my nephew Ben and my niece Sanne died in a fire. I was very sad and desperate. Because I didn't have words to express my despair, I drew this werewolf. I dedicate my drawing to Ben and Sanne.

Image

Donna Williams, The Outsider

Image

This next one is by far my favorite.
Wil C. Kerner, Pals (collage), age 12

What was the inspiration for this piece? [answered by grandmother]

The key in understanding Pals is the brown rimmed off-white donkey ear. Four facial expressions depict the bad boys turning into donkeys in the movie Pinocchio: purple-faced Pinocchio is stunned by his new ear and considering what to do; it's too late for the horrified yellow face; the green trapezoid is oblivious to his pending fate; the blue head is looking away hoping he's not included.

They're all incredible but that last one is just so very complex for cut up construction paper.
I think I stumbled on this or something like that but anyway here's the link.

It's only so expensive because they stopped printing it. I got my hands on a copy from the school's library and it was well worth the wait.
Great documentary (by nova maybe?) on Youtube by the same name (In the realms of the unreal). He was a total shut-in. He just created another world. 15,000+ pages of manuscript and manymany illustrations were his life.
