Every house, office space or living space, MUST have art. It is a vital decor item that add so much character, atmosphere and tells a story.
I love to see small pieces in unexpected places. The surprising element that keeps on giving.
The best thing about ART is that you are never limited to where you can showcase it.
Can you imagine a house without art ? It does not have to be the most expensive or popular piece. Art can be your vocal point where you start planning your decor around it or it can simply be a piece to distract you from unsightly plug points or a piece to bring everything together.
A popular use for art is at your entrance or even in a showcase cabinet.
I have a staircase wall and hallway wall dedicated to all our family art. It is quite a variety, I must say myself, but it tells so many stories and brings so much warmth to my soul. I have some of my kids' art that was saved after the fire and a few damaged ones that we restored. It does not fit into my color scheme, therefore it is out of sight for visitors, but it will always be part of our life stories and memories.
Art forms the soul with new pathways and is uplifting. It enhance a space and brings a homely feeling.
Be wise when you choose your art,but never overthink it. To display your childs art, is a big investment in his or her mental health and development. Show your love,respect and appreciation for the artist talent.
Buying art pieces on our overseas trips is my new hobby. I buy prints for a fraction of the price and it is so easy to travel with.
I paint myself, not that I do it often enough, but it is therapeutic and I love it!
