How up-my-own-ass would it be to commission art for the 15k novelette I sold? It was a big sale for me, but like...it's not a novel. And I don't need the art for self-pub promo.
I think that would be very cool - the original (or nice print) framed even. Ephemera is a great way to express what you love and the joy it brings you.
I think that’s awesome. My brother in law collects inks and pencils for comics, has rooms full of them framed. Having one for YOUR story would be cool as hell.
My own "should I buy A Thing" rubric basically boils down to "can I afford it, do I have room for it, do I want it enough to go to the effort of sourcing it?" - I don't consider "do I need it for practical purposes" or "what will others think about the relative importance/relevance" as important factors.

Then do it. It's that simple.
