Art Hound

In case you haven’t heard me talk about it before, Nahcotta is a little design shop and art gallery in Portsmouth, New Hampshire with one of the best selections of affordable art online. Their Enormous Tiny Art Show is a rotating selection of work 10″ x 10″ and under by many fabulous independent artists around the country. Here are my picks of what’s on show now.

I want to share a great online market I recently discovered called buyolympia.com. The Portland, OR-based handmade market started in 1999 to help local PNW artists sell their wares online. This week’s picks are all from buyolympia.com, which sells cards, prints, books, t-shirts, home and personal accessories and the occasional original piece of art. Enjoy!
