Free Art: Feed Your Soul

Feed Your Soul: the free art project, is a really cool project of Jen Wallace, author of one of my favorite blogs, Indie Fixx. Feed Your Soul is her recent endeavor where each month a selection of invited artists contribute one print, which is totally free and available for download for personal use. What great way to discover new and new to you artists and perk up your space.
