3 Ways To Preview Art On Your Wall
Want to see how the art you’ve been eyeing up recently will look on your wall? Choosing art for your home is a special and long term decision- you want to know you’re choosing the right piece. Here are 3 ways to help you choose that perfect piece.
Free Room Preview Example - ‘Towards The Light’ - 60 x 60 cm - Framed Oil On Canvas - Perranuthanoe, Cornwall
#1 I Offer Free Room Mock Ups With My Art
Step 1) SEND ME A PHOTO OF YOUR BLANK WALL
Be sure to capture your wall with as bright and even lighting as you can and email it to me at rachel.painter.artist@gmail.com with the name(s) of paintings you are interested in.
Step 2) I'll DIGITALLY place the painting on your wall
Using PhotoShop I’ll email you an image with your painting(s) to give you a feel for how the painting could look in your space (see image above).
Here’s an example…
Kerry and I worked together through a series of emails, discussing the best frame choices for her seascape painting of Cornwall to suit her red and white kitchen decor as well visualising it in a room mock up.
KIND WORDS FROM
Kerry Campbell
“We were looking for an artwork to decorate our new extension and, as we love Cornwall after many happy holidays there, I was really pleased to find Rachel’s collection online. I loved the seascapes with wild flowers in the foreground. The painting we purchased is absolutely beautiful with speckles of flowers and a vivid sunset over the sea behind, adding a lovely splash of colour to our new room and looks gorgeous. Rachel was so helpful, selecting a frame that complimented the painting and our decor, and it’s now hung in pride of place above our breakfast bar!”
#2 Test the Positioning With A Template
Alternatively, you can visualise a painting in your home using paper cut to the size of the framed painting and lightly tack to the wall where you’re thinking of it hanging. This is great to test the size of the painting in your space.
#3 Use A Wall Visualiser App
Although quite often used for artists to help market their art, some apps come with the ability to take a photo of your wall and add an image of your painting in-app. Here are few you could experiment with:
WallApp
Although as the name would suggest WallApp is not a mobile app. It’s a website that you can upload your own wall photo too and position the image of your painting.
ARTSEE
Download ARTSEE and take a few pictures of the blank walls you’d like to fill with art. ARTSEE makes shooting and sizing the walls easy. With ARTSEE on your phone, you can take photos of artwork anywhere, superimposing them on your walls at home, creating artwork wall previews that we call “hangups”. You can easily export your creations or share them with your partner, friends or family.
I hope you’ve found this helpful. If you have your eye on any of my originals or prints and are curious to see what they’d look like in your home- feel free to email me at rachel.painter.artist@gmail.com.
