Artwork is to your home like accessories are to an outfit: the finishing touch to show off your personality. But what is considered wall art? Wall art is a decoration that hangs on your wall and choosing it is all about location, location, location. Entryways, living room walls, stairways and even the bathroom are all perfect places to hang wall art. The first thing to consider is the size of your space. Do you have a big blank space above your couch or a small spot in your kitchen? The size of your wall art matters because you want to enhance the space, not make it look cluttered. How to choose your wall hanging also depends completely on your personal style. Shop all kinds of beautiful wall art, available at Macy’s.
Types of Wall Art.
Canvas Wall Art. Sleek, budget-friendly and gorgeous, canvas wall art is the most common artwork found hanging in homes. With canvas wall art, you can easily bring the garden indoors with floral pieces that blossom among your home decor. For contemporary canvas artwork, turn to pieces from Oliver Gal, a collection of art by sisters and artists Lola Sanchez and Ana Gal. These pieces are often fashion-inspired works with bold, vibrant colors. They are also inspired by travels from around the world to places like Spain, Italy, St. Lucia, China, Israel and Africa. There is a piece of canvas wall art for every personality, theme and style. Half the fun is finding what speaks to you.
Framed Wall Art. The styling possibilities are endless with framed art. Earthy wood with light or dark tones, ornate gold-leaf frames for vintage vibes, sleek black or crisp white borders, frames can make a picture pop. Depending on the frame you choose, artwork can even appear to float among the glass that holds the frame in place. Do not be afraid to mix up your wall art. Turn that bare hallway into a gallery of family portraits, favorite landscapes and hand-painted canvases, or create a gorgeous gallery wall in your living room with a mix of framed and unframed art in various shapes and sizes.
Abstract Wall Art. Take a blank space in your home and turn it into a playful, vibrant room you love with abstract wall art. This type of art encourages you to use your imagination by using shapes, colors, forms and lines to create dreamy decor. Do you have a mantel over your fireplace? Select different sizes of abstract wall art to bring that mantel to life.
Landscape Wall Art. Do you love a hike through the trees or the sound of a tumbling waterfall? Bring a little bit of that home with you with landscape art. This type of wall art is usually designed with a wide view of a nature scene depicting things like mountains, valleys, animals and sunsets. They’re gorgeous!
