Selling hand silkscreen printed wall art in a variety of styles and colors, The Art Farmer delivers designs of various sizes on cotton or cotton-blend fabric stretched over hardwood frames. The lightweight artwork arrives ready to hang or prop on a shelf, with no glass to break from an inadvertent tumble.
Choose wall art from the following categories: Animal, Beach, Contemporary, Country, Floral, Kids, Lodge, Nature, Resort, and Vintage. The 18-inch-by-30-inch, red-on-aqua Bikini Print (pictured below) is a bestseller. The original designs spring from the creative minds of a handful of artists, some of whom have changed their names on The Art Farmer “to make you think they are more interesting,” according to the site. Prices range from $30 to $66. Shipping varies with UPS.

Two new pieces (one photograph and one paper print) go online each week. Small print price: $20, plus $4.50 first class shipping per item.
