“Viewville offers gallery-quality digital art at affordable prices (as low as $65, which is pretty amazing). I, of course, immediately went to the ‘Food’ section, where I discovered artist Tim Chumley, who slices fruit until he finds a piece that holds color while allowing light to pass through. Above is ‘Cherry,’ which would be stunning in a large size on a stark white wall.”

“If you fantasize about decorating your living room with high-art photos but are on a poster budget, head to Viewville.com. Started by a band of local ad-agency veterans, this slick site peddles professsional photographers’ gallery-quality prints at affordable prices. The artist gets 50 percent of the sale and you get to hang a surreal landscape by Linda Plaisted or sophisticated still life by Phil Bode for less than $100.”

“ ‘Affordable’ and ‘artwork’ don’t always necessarily go together, but when they do... it’s marvelous. Viewville’s website offers professional photographers’ works at extremely reasonable prices (starting at $65 for an 8x10, and up) on professional quality matte print paper. There’s a versatile range of subjects and pieces are added regularly.”

“Viewville, a start-up online distributor of photographic prints based in Minneapolis, is recruiting photographers with an eye toward balancing quality and affordability... Another way Viewville is trying to distinguish itself is by re-creating a gallery experience online. The site makes generous use of white space. And buyers can read photographers’ bios and their explanations of the images.”

“There’s always room on the wall for more art... we don’t have to go to the gallery to get gallery-quality photography... Viewville.com sells the best fine-art works by... photographers at affordable prices. The photos are all originals, printed on top-quality materials and shipped directly to your home, wall-ready. Now there’s no reason for those halls to go un-decked this month.”
