When I first began my writing career many moons ago, and I had a small audience (and a barely-making-it bank account to match), there were 3 things I splurged on:

1. Fresh flowers in my living room at all times. They’re so good for the soul. And they can make you feel rich, even when you’re poor.
2. Clothes - (needless to say).
3. And art.

I love art, and I have an insane respect for artists. Not to mention that my male friends are always terribly impressed by my art-filled walls. Art is like my Maserati!

So I’m moving to NYC next week, and I’ve been scoping the scene for some new pieces.

Today I ran across Etsy-based artist yellena.

I love her usage of color. Of course I heart the exciting design work. And at $15-$40 a print, you can afford to allocate a few dollars from your clothing budget.
