LOOKING FOR DECORATIVE ART?  

We're finally able to let you in on a decades-old secret of the trade.  For years, we've been able to order single prints for our clients from almost every known publisher of affordable prints, without having to meet their minimum purchase requirements.  How?  Lieberman's Gallery has provided this "clearinghouse" service to the trade.  Now, you can access that same database directly by clicking HERE.  You can search by a number of criteria, then choose your art and have it shipped directly to your home, or get free shipping by having it sent to us, where you'll also save $30 on the framing. 

And here's a great source of affordable high-quality giclee prints.  Artaissance offers thousands of images and you can print it any size you like on paper or canvas. Just click the logo below.
