What is original art? It can be the painting over your couch, but it can also be your coffee cup, your bathroom mirror, or your wedding ring. When any of these objects is made with care by a skilled and talented artist, it surely is a work of art.

Regardless of price or medium, all artwork is reviewed and selected by an advisory panel headed by Michael Monroe , former curator-in-charge of the Smithsonian Institution's Renwick Gallery. The jurying process represents an ironclad commitment to our customers that artwork offered through The Guild is of the highest quality and integrity.

Our artful home decor selection of more than 10,000 original paintings, prints, photographs, sculptures, and works in the fine craft media of glass, ceramics, fiber, metal, and wood are sourced from artists throughout North America. We also provide a wealth of information about the artists and their work, so visitors are informed about how and why the art was created.
