I'm narrowing down how to do my artist study next year, but I really want to have a nice sized (8x11 would be great) of each artist. I got a great site for the artist info, but I need to buy a copy of the paintings. Any ideas?

They used to have a gal who made up the prints for a set cost. I always wanted to do it, but never had the time.

I buy calendars (usually on sale by now!) and cut them apart. Just last week I bought a Monet calendar on sale at Barnes and Noble. Look at Amazon.com, too.

If you have a good printer, you can print them from the yahoo group for free:

Here's the link to purchase sets of prints for the Ambleside Online Artist Study (http://amblesideonline.org/ArtAngela.shtml). Also, if you scroll to the bottom of the page there's is info about joining the AOPrints Yahoo Group (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AOArtPrints/). They have .pdf files of all the artwork used in the AO Artist Study. You can print these out at home (8.5x11). I've used the daVinci prints, and they turned out great!

HTH!

Just in case it's worth it to anyone else, I'll post what we do.

I, too, follow Ambleside's recommendation. There is an art website they recommend (would need to go to their site, can't pick it from memory) and I have been able to put the art prints up as our screen-saver. It's been a great way for us to become familiar with the different artists and art in a very simple, passive way.
