Building a Wall Art Collection with Canvas Prints

Building a wall art collection with canvas prints is a great idea to turn your area into a personal gallery. From minimalism to eclectic, the canvas prints enable you to reflect your very own unique style and personality. Because of their durability, versatility, and aesthetic appeal, they make them an ideal choice for curating a cohesive wall art collection. Here is how you can create an inspiring wall art collection with canvas prints.

 1. Define Your Theme or Style

First, you have to think of a theme or style that interests you the most. For example, do you like abstract art, landscapes, portraits, or modern designs? Are you inspired by travel photographs, vintage designs, or nature scenes? Having a clear theme will guide you in making a good choice of prints which go well together with your personality.

 3. Select a Color Scheme

Choose a color palette for your prints so there is some uniformity to your collection. While you might choose to go strictly with monochromatic, earth tones, or brights, a consistent color scheme adds balance to your display. For instance, combining black and white photography with neutral-colored abstract artwork gives your wall a cohesive look.

### 3. Varying Size Mix it up. Mix the size of your prints as well as the color and type. Hang the larger pieces of art above furniture pieces and relegate the smaller prints to spaces adjacent to furniture. Having too many of the same size may make the place seem cluttered.

With size variations, a wall art collection develops visual interest. You have the option to combine larger statement pieces with smaller accent prints for dynamic compositions. You can collect several small prints in a grid or a gallery wall formation and top it off with a large canvas as a focal piece within the collection. Plan your composition for each print before hanging it for a balanced appearance.

 4. Choose Framing Styles

Professional framing can really make your canvas prints pop. Some prints are beautiful just the way they are, especially if you're going for a clean, modern look. On the other hand, a small or large frame may be all the icing that brings pieces together, and draws attention where it will really pay off. Try mixing framed with unframed canvases in a layered display.

 5. Try out some different compositions

And of course, the experimenting component when arranging your canvas art collection could mean that you end up having a symmetrical grid, which is very clean and ordered or an organic, asymmetrical arrangement for a very casual, laid-back feel. First, lay the prints on the floor before hanging them on the wall to visualize different arrangements.

 6. Select the Right Wall

While your prints are clearly the most important, the wall you hang them on also matters. Sometimes, a plain wall in the living room, hallway, or bedroom can be just the right showcase for your collection. Just make sure the wall is exposed enough to where the prints can receive light, but not so much that direct sunlight hits the prints directly over time and fades them.

 7. Rotate Your Collection

As you collect more of these prints, it can be lots of fun to rotate them every few months. Then you will see different pieces and appreciate change throughout the year, which can really bring new life and energy into your space.

 Conclusion

From canvas prints to combine, a truly fulfilling and original undertaking, it's a collection in the form of wall art. Defining your style, selecting the prints, playing around with the layout, and even rotating pieces will compose for you a very special personal gallery which will raise the aesthetic value of your home.
