The Artful Home: Rex Ray at Urban Outfitters

Most of you know by now how I feel about Urban Outfitters and its occasional propensity for "borrowing" others' designs. But I also have to give the company props for handpicking great up-and-coming and established artists and making their work available in a really affordable way.

The latest artist to get the UO treatment is San Francisco's Rex Ray, whose wildly colorful "Strigosa" has been digitally transferred onto an 18-by-24-inch stretched canvas that can be yours for just $50.

Of course, I'd love nothing better than to one day own a Rex Ray original (which typically sell for several hundred to several thousand dollars apiece). But right now, this is probably the only way that a Ray canvas is going to end up on my wall.
