speaking of potential art prices ....

When I used to hang out with the chick that did all the work for TPA (a Savage Worlds licensee), and the quote she gave me for a "friends, but I gotta eat" price was in the $50-$500 range (depending on size and color).
And she also expected to maintain ownership rights (despite having it explained to her that contract-work-for-hire doesn't work like that).

So? That just means that her quoted prices weren't for work for hire, they were for a license to use the art in a given way (for instance for a single book).

How about just combing through DeviantArt until you see something you want to use and then negotiate a fee to use it?

Sounds like it would be less expensive and you'd get exactly what you wanted.
