A few insider tips from a sought-after abstract expressionist painter
Whether you are moving into a new home, renovating a home or just changing the look of your home, here are some helpful hints concerning art selection. If you do not want to direct too much attention to the art in a room look at subtle pieces. With abstract art pick something that is more decorative and simple. In realism, choose pieces that are calming, with neutral colors, and something from the natural world. If you prefer a statement piece, you can accomplish this in several ways. Whether abstract or realism, look for art pieces that are executed in strong or contrasting colors. Evocative imagery, black and white photography, very graphic pieces.
If you love language, seek out art with words which are poignant, strong, provocative. But most importantly, that move you.
Discovering an artist whose work you love is always exciting. You can work with the artist to negotiate a bespoke commissioned piece that works in your home for a precise location. Collaborating with an artist is thrilling. You’ll have a one-of-a-kind piece to scale and in a palette you love that can really make a room sing. If you’re passionate about some of the great masters, you can purchase a signed lithograph or print and with a carefully selected frame, have a curated piece uniquely yours.
