Supporting small businesses

For whatever reason, I've been loving original artwork lately. Etsy is filled with them and over the past few weeks, I haven't been able to refrain from purchasing a few. So far, they've gone in my kids' room, but I love the idea of filling my home with art and I love the idea of supporting small businesses and independent artists. I think it's an important part of our economy and I love the idea of having things in my home that are unique and truly made from a budding passion. Here are a few prints that I've especially been loving lately.
