  1. Australian Affordable Art on Etsy: Our Top 30

    ‘Hollow abstract fine art print,  by Belinda Marshall Art. When Etsy invited us to curate a gallery wall using affordable Australian art earlier this month (have you entered our giveaway to win 1 of seven artworks valued at over $1,000?), we found a plethora of amazing pieces. From embroidered artworks and giclee prints to screen-printed linen and original acrylics, you can find a veritable trove of lovely treasure by Australian artists on Etsy. It just goes to show that you don't have to spend buckets to start an art collection, and add a pop of personality, a dash of colour and creative expression to the walls of your home. Here, we've done the shopping for you, and rounded up our top 30 artworks. Top: ‘Hollow' abstract fine art print, $65 by Belinda Marshall Art.
