Framed Art Tips
When it comes to Framed Art, we've been there, done that, now serving 258 tips in 21 categories ranging from Art Galleries to Transporting Art.
Family photographs
Before framing your old family photographs consider having copies made for a record and to share with other family members. You can also have cherished, damaged photos restored with the same process. It is nice to mark the photos with the date, location, who is in the photos and the family relationship, so future generations can identify them. Bear in mind anything that is done to the back of a photo or any other work of art will eventually effect the front. Instead make an extra copy or mark the back of the framed photo.
Salon Hanging
Not enough wall space for your growing collection-consider "salon hanging". Hang your artwork from floor to ceiling as the galleries do or the way you may hang family photos. To accomplish this find a common element and mix another. For example, you may select pieces of the same style and mix media or frame choices. This way the selection will be purposeful and interesting.
Rotating your artwork
A simple way to change the decor of your home or a room is to try buying a new piece of art as the seasons change and rotate the location of some of the pieces you have in the house. You will see the work in a new way and give a room a new look without great expense or effort.
Hand Painted Oil Reproductions
Owning an original oil painting by one of the masters – Picasso, Van Gogh, Claude Monet, to name but a few, may never be more than a dream for most.
Today, however, there is no reason why you can't have an exquisite masterpiece of your own. Our talented and experienced artists produce outstanding oil paintings, reproducing down to the finest details those works by the world's most renowned artists.
Art as investment alone
Don't ever buy a piece of art for investment alone. Always love the work of art you are purchasing and it will always be sound.
