The Trail Doesn’t End When You Get Home – Find the Perfect Spot

Before you reach for the hammer, try your new artwork in a few different places.

Look at it in morning light. Try another room. Stand back and see how it works with the colours and objects around it.

Sometimes the wall you never considered turns out to be exactly the right one.

The perfect spot is simply where you get to enjoy it.

The Trail Doesn’t End When You Get Home – Don’t Be Afraid to Mix Styles

Your home doesn’t need to look like a perfectly matched gallery.

Mix contemporary art with vintage furniture. Hang an abstract beside a traditional piece. Combine paintings, photography, textiles, ceramics and sculpture.

A home becomes interesting when it reflects the people who live there — not when everything matches.

If you love it, there’s usually a way to make it work.

The Trail Doesn’t End When You Get Home – Buy What You Love

Forget for a moment about matching the couch, following trends or wondering what someone else will think.

Art is personal.

If you keep walking back to a piece, if it makes you smile, stops you in your tracks or simply makes you feel something — pay attention.

The best art collections aren’t built around rules. They’re built one piece at a time from things the collector genuinely loves.

The Trail Doesn’t End When You Get Home – Ask the Artist About the Story

One of the wonderful things about buying directly from an artist is being able to ask about the work.

What inspired it? Where did the idea come from? How was it made? Does the title have a story?

You may discover something you would never have known simply by looking at the finished piece.

And that story becomes something you take home with the artwork.
