expensive art

So, outside my door, on campus, they are having "Art on the Mall". In support of all the starving artists, I went and had a look around. and was hoping to get some Christmas shopping done too.
But to no avail. While the event was on a college campus, there was nothing there in the price range of a college student.
I will admit, the colored glass was very pretty, but not worth 50 bucks as a gift for someone who might not even use it anyway. But there were enough rich Ottawa Hills ladies there making enough purchases for everyone.
