Try here

or here

www.on-linegallery.co.uk/index.php

or trawl local galleries

You could also try Ebay for self representing artists. I bought one this way and got another artist sourced on Ebay to do two commissions for me and they were very reasonable at £49 each

Buy a large canvas from art store, plus assorted tester paint pots from DIY store (or look in your garage). Get creative.

Or - find local small galleries and get something a bit unique.
