Sorry I should have been more specific.. I'm looking for paintings..
And I do paint, I put a small bit of my own stuff up, but I really prefer to gain inspiration from outside sources.. I become bored with my own creations after a while..
Plus I'm way too critical of myself to put my own work up in my new house..
So if anyone has any online portfolios / examples of work I'd love to talk to you about buying some art..

Don't put your own work up around the house. Trade work with other artists or lend it to each other.

v-gates, that's an interesting concept (FAAN). have you participated?
- v-gates0
yes. sent some drawings to a 5th grade class in New Brunswick led by an inspired teacher, and to other artists. Goodemail exchanges about art, motivation, value. Plus what the fuck am I going to do with keeping all that stuff around? Its a pleasure having in someone's life instead in my storage.
