Where do you recommend I get artwork in Paris. We walked through Montmarte and liked it because there were a lot of artists in one location. I’d there another place similar to that folks recommend? Thank you!

That is the main place some local artists are gathered for souvenir paintings. Some may have works in studios you can visit. Prints and paintings, even ones made for tourists, are some of my favorite items to take home.

There are numerous small art shops on the Ile St. Louis; some on the rue St. Louis en l'le but also on the side streets, so look along both. I've bought a couple of things over the years and still love them.

Tocard brings up a wonderful alternative. I've purchased a few pieces through the Drouot Auction House. Although my buys have been on line from the US, you can see what's scheduled while you're there, and attend an auction.
I was in Paris recently, but the auctions that were scheduled the days I could attend had nothing that interested me.
