Thought you could never afford to be an art collector? Think again with Exhibition A.

I'm a big fan of all the members-only online shopping sites. I've bought many outfits, handbags and even a vacation through them, but now I can expand my shopping arena to the world of art. Real art. As in, by real artists. And the best part is, it won't break the bank. Check out Exhibition A, started by one of my fave designers, Cynthia Rowley. She, along with Bill Powers and Laura Martin, owners of Half Gallery, created this smart service for bringing art to the masses. Sign up for your free account and start cruising works by contemporary artists like Julia Chiang, mind behind the One of a Kind print (shown). Although a lot of the art available on the site is amazing, this one in particular seems like it would be equally appropriate in a kid's play space as it would hanging in your living room.

The print shown is actually inkjet printed on wood, but most pieces are on stretched canvas and come ready-to-hang. Most of the editions are limited to 100 prints or less and are numbered and signed by the artists. With prices starting around $100 and maxing out at $500, I'm thinking it's a good excuse to take down any framed posters you might be still hanging onto since college.

The one challenge, as with all the flash sale-type sites is that you have to sign up to be able to browse around. If you're an art fan, I say go for it. -Betsy
