Great online sources for Artwork
Since most of my clients need budget-friendly artwork as opposed to museum pieces, I've been searching online for sources that are a good fit. Here are a few of my faves -- some sell bespoke pieces, limited editions, or mass produced pieces, with price points to suit any budget.
To make your own 'artwork cheat sheet', here are the links to the sources:
I've also got a few tips that may help with finding and placing your new art:
1. Tape out the area of the wall that you are placing your work on to determine the size and orientation (vertical or horizontal). This will help eliminate unsuitable pieces and find the perfect fit.
2. Decide your 'comfort range' on cost. Some of the sites will let you put that information in the search, so you don't even catch a glimpse of unaffordable work!
3. And finally, the general rule of thumb is to hang artwork at your eye level, meaning the center of the artwork should land at the height of your eyes (usually 60-68 inches above floor level).
