Art Work - Too Small for Wall?
Comments (60)Thanks everyone ... I appreciate all the help and compliments I received on this! The rug isn't new, but it was my 3rd try until I got it "right" You know I didn't even think to move the picture up a little, to cover the box, but I will definitely do that. Unfortunately my whole house needs to be rewired, so I will have many more of these type holes to patching paint!...See MoreArt websites for large wall art
Comments (3)I've used Saatchi Art ( https://www.saatchiart.com/), which has art in a variety of sizes at a variety of price points. If your budget is more toward prints (though depending on the medium and the artist, original art can be pretty affordable), Great Big Canvas (https://www.greatbigcanvas.com/) or iCanvas ( https://www.icanvas.com/) sell large size prints in a variety of styles. Also, give IRL art shopping a chance. Galleries, art fairs, or the rotating artwork at you local cafe give you a chance to support local artists. I have many pieces from a local studio that provides space and services to disabled adults. There are also student art shows. I know it's more work than the internet, where you can look at hundreds of pieces in an hour and easily filter by price and size, but local shopping is rewarding and supports artists directly....See MoreI'm not sure what size art work to put above the couch ?
Comments (1)As long it is centered 35"x35" or a 40"x30". Also if you do two prints with the 30" wide you can have a 9" space between them....See MoreWhat kind of wall art should I put on this big wall?
Comments (14)@Ann Marie Thanks for the suggestion! I will look there. I'm a little partial to painted art rather than photography, but I'll see what they have. @lindac92 That sounds like good advice! How would the need for a lamp change what art would go in that space? I have no idea how to think about that at all. But you're right, probably I would want a table lamp there. I know from browsing around that sometimes art just goes behind a lamp, which honestly feels weird to me, but maybe it's fine. But I'm not sure how that changes what I would want to put on the wall there. @threers Thanks for the advice! I can assure you that I will most definitely only get art I love. If I'm going to look at it every day, it had better make me happy! But I would also like it to match the rest of the room if I can possibly arrange it. :) @Patricia Colwell I actually was originally thinking of having two couches (which I think may have the result of another comment of yours in another thread), but the problem is that I can't seem to make it work with our TV placement. I definitely want a couch to face the TV, and then the only real arrangement that works is to have an L-shaped arrangement. And if I'm going to have that, well, I have always liked couches with corners, so that's how I arrived at a sectional. But I'm open to other alternatives - I just don't know of any good ones. :)...See Morekatmiller0
