    Where are your favorite places to buy prints for picture study?  Preferably display-sized.  TIA!

    I really like to buy previous years’ calendars off of calendars.com or ebay. You can often find calendars for under $5. Right now we are studying Michelangelo, though, and I found a great hardcover book with all of his works from a used seller on Amazon for about $15.

    I find them at my local used book stores, the Friends of the Library book sales, and I LOVE the SCM Picture Studies sold here in the bookstore.  They are beautiful and fit right into my display frame.  I also use old calendars.

    AO has many yahoo groups for artist prints… they are either in a picture format (jpg) or a pdf format… you then take them to be printed.

    I don’t use prints, just to toss in another option here.  Instead I pull pictures into a file on my computer from places like this (The Athenaeum) http://www.the-athenaeum.org/art/by_artist.php?&sort=&id=789&p=4

    I put one as my desktop background (the one we’re studying) and then my screensaver rotates through our past picture study pictures, or through a selection of works by that artist.  Free and easy!
