Clare — Easyart Art Consultant

Art is a small detail that has a large impact on a room, and pictures are the perfect finishing touch for any home. Here are some top tips from Easyart’s Art Consultant Clare to help you find the right picture.

Where is the art going to hang?

Look round the room — which walls will best show off your art print? Find the main feature walls — where will you face when you sit or walk into the room.

What Shape of Print Best Suits the Space?

Look at the shape of the space where the prints will hang — will a landscape, portrait or square picture fit best? (If in doubt go for a squarer shape). Use our ‘Sort Prints By’ search to select portrait or landscape shaped prints.

Rather than guessing actually measure the wall — remember to leave some space between the edge of the print and the wall.

Size Matters!

Be brave — it looks really striking to have a large print if there’s room for it!

How about having a pair or set of prints to fill a space? If hanging two prints together on a wall, try to get them the same size and shape — many of our prints are available in sets of matching sizes.

Find Your Style

Choose art to define the mood of your room — would you like a relaxing, uplifting or sensual feel?

Look at What You Love

Are there any memories you would like the print to recall; a favourite city, holiday or garden? Be inspired by our categories, where prints are presented by print type, subject and style. Our bestsellers list is another great place to start browsing.

Do you have a favourite style or era — art nouveau, vintage, classic music stars?

Tie It Together With Colour

Are there any colours in the room you’d like to highlight? Find a print with accents of the dominant colour in the room.
