Paintings and prints are one of those things I would rarely buy for myself but I absolutely adore as a gift. It adds character and story to any room and will stand the test of time. The Jam Art Factory has loads of Dublin-centric art too, which is ideal for someone who is missing home. https://www.instagram.com/p/ByzFwRpiwlg/
