> Buying original paintings from professional artists doesn't have to be that expensive. This past weekend I attended a group art show opening in Melbourne and prices ranged from $450 to $2200 for some very nice original oil & watercolour paintings. Yep you're right. Our creative art section at http://www.instapainting.com http://www.instapainting.com feature artists from the Bay Area as well as New York, and their prices are actually even lower than the ones you listed. They're only a little bit more costly than market rate photo to painting.
