i woul n't spend that much on an artist unless your game is going to make lot's of money.If you could get an artist who is as interested in the project as you, you may get someone even volunteering.
A 3d artist would not get paid as much anyway for indie stuff anyway.
I would say get your game design, code sorted out and if you feel its going somewhere , then pay for someone. don't just throw your cash around for the sake of it.
