Recently, a few friends have asked me where to find beautiful, cool and fun art. So, here are 12 great places to look online (and please add ideas in the comments!)…
Above: House of Spoils is all about adventure photographers.
British artist Hugo Guinness makes whimsical linocuts in his Brooklyn studio. (We have this car in our bedroom.)
Eventide Collective brings together the work of incredible female artists. (We have these poppies, and I love them.)
Painter Valerie Suter explores subjects and people who have been marginalized in history.
Anthropologie has a big selection of artwork in a bunch of styles.
Sonic Editions features incredible photographic prints of musicians, film stars and cultural icons.
The New Yorker sells comics, covers and photographs. (This one always makes me laugh, and dog lovers might like this.)
Book/Shop in Oakland, California, has a few cool posters for book lovers.
20×200 sells all kinds of artist prints starting at $24.
Tappan Collective highlights emerging artists from around the world. (They also feature guest curators, like Maya Erskine from PEN15!)
Jenny Pennywood does such beautiful work with shapes and color.
Also, my friend Erin Jang says, “Whenever I see an illustrator whose style I love, in the newspaper or in a magazine, I find their website and most of the time they sell their own prints. It’s a way to support artists more directly, and it’s more affordable.” For example, Alessandra Olanow, Adrian Tomine, Abbey Lossing and Kadir Nelson all have shops, and Erin made this beautiful print, too.
Plus, three destinations that we’ve written about in the past: Serena Mitnik-Miller, Juniper Print Shop, and Permanent Press Editions.

P.S. More affordable art.
