What is the appropriate size for a wall portrait?

Picture
In order to achieve maximum impact a portrait or group of portraits should occupy a minimum of 50% of the space available. If the artwork occupies less space the empty space surrounding it becomes the focal point instead. An 8x10 displayed over a piece of furniture, for example, draws attention to the walls instead of to the portrait. When investing in portraits for wall decor remember that this is simply one design element which must relate appropriately to the others in the room. Therefore, size and proportion are just as important considerations as are color and style.



Paul's distinctive professional portraiture will serve beautifully as a focal point over a fireplace or sofa and is a wonderfull way to showcase the people you love. It is an original home furnishing that just happens to hang on the wall! In your photographic consultation Paul will discuss your plans for displaying your portrait. He has professional app that can show you exactly how large your portrait or groupings will be in the rooms you are considering. Ask him how! 



Paul has been commisioned to create artwork for many business establishments in Madison and Milwaukee. He will be happy to share his knowledge and expertise to enhance your office design and reception area with a series of original images and artwork.
