Your home is an extension of your personality. And using original artwork is a great way to show that individuality. With a little effort, you could greatly enhance your home's status by showcasing original art in your living spaces. Here's a tip to consider when choosing artwork.
What color piece should I choose? The answer depends on your space and what you want to accomplish. Do you want the piece to blend in to the space or do you want it to be the focus and "pop?" Are the colors in your room bold or light and pastel? For my patrons, I usually suggest looking at interior design websites, magazines, Pinterest, etc. to find places similar to theirs or how they want their spaces to look. I'll even bring paint swatches from the hardware store to come up with a palette. And if your house is all beige or gray, something bright and bold maybe what you're looking for. Or if your walls have a lot of color, a black and white piece may be a stunning addition... (more at: http://mikekraus.blogspot.com/p/how-to-use-original-artwork-in-your.html)
This painting would look best in an average sized space. The suggested wall colors are dark red, orange, yellow, light green, dark blue, light purple, black, white, gray, or beige.
