You should start with Fine Art America, who has thousands of pieces of artwork that you can use to make your home just as unique as you are.

Sites like Fine Art America provide famous favorites as well as let independent artists and photographers market their work to a broad audience. Custom markups allow artists to make sure that their work is available at a great price, which gives art lovers new and fantastic pieces to choose from, unlike other art shops.

Displaying Your Works

Just selecting the art you want is only the first step. Next, you’ll need to figure out how you want to display it. If you want to emphasize the piece in addition to preserving your wall art from sun and dust, you should look into framed prints. A dark frame with white matting is common, as it draws the eye to the image with the frame, separating it from the wall, and the matting providing a clean outline that lets the artwork pop. A variety of different colors for the frame and matting provides contrast as well as lets the piece work with your general décor theme or color scheme. You can refresh your art without needing to repaint a room!

Protecting your artwork can be just as important as the aesthetics. Use the appropriate paper and glass to make sure that your piece is safe from fading or decay. Acid-free paper backing and museum quality glass or acrylic will make sure the sun’s UV rays or the manufacturer’s chemicals don’t destroy old, delicate, or valuable pieces.

Mix And Match

If you want a more eclectic look, you can get prints on a variety of material. A good canvas print will provide texture and focus to a piece, the 3D nature of the art really dominates a space when alone on a wall. If you’re into more funky pieces, check out wooden or metal prints. They will go great with a more rustic or industrial theme, respectively. A benefit of these is that they won’t need glass to preserve them, ensuring that your art lasts a lifetime.

Don’t limit yourself to just prints though, you can check out other types of wall art that provide a unique flair. If you are looking to cover a large space, tapestries can provide that big image without the weight. For those of you looking for more lighthearted or budget art, posters are a great deal with loads of fun options. Then of course paintings give a traditional, sophisticated air when you are looking to up the wow factor.

Enjoy!

Once you’ve selected all the pieces and mediums that you want, it’s time to love your art every time you see it. You can even put your favorites on anything!
