Need a little help with ideas for hanging your artwork ??

http://www.jenniferyoung.com/designideas.htm

You can hang paintings alone or in groupings or alone for varied interesting effects. Some people prefer a symmetrical hanging for a formal look, but don't rule out asymmetry for a dynamic look. Of course, there are many more variations and seemingly endless possibilities! These are just a few to get the ideas flowing. *Something to keep in mind: All of the paintings on my site list dimensions in inches. These dimensions refer to the actual canvas measurements. Depending on the framing, you should allow for an additional 3 to 6 inches on each side for the frame. Contact us for more information on the framing options available, as well as the outside frame dimensions. You may also wish to read Jennifer's blog for more tips on fine art care and display.

“It’s a contemporary home with strong Moorish influences,” project architect Matthew Stratton, of Bender & Associates Architects, says of a Key West, Florida, house he designed for model, actress and writer Veronica Webb and her husband, George Robb. “It’s like looking into a kaleidoscope,” Webb observes of the rooms. “You have enough pattern and color to keep you entertained: I feel that it all weaves together—my husband George’s shipwreck culture with my fashion and crafts culture. We enjoy its & ‘crossroads of civilization’ spirit.” The dome ceiling was produced in Morocco. Shade trim, Samuel & Sons. (March 2009)

THE ART OF CAMPFIRE COOKING

Some cool art quotes for ya !!

Art is the imposing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recognition of the pattern.

Alfred North Whitehead (1861 - 1947)

Painting: The art of protecting flat surfaces from the weather and exposing them to the critic.

Ambrose Bierce (1842 - 1914)

I paint my own reality. The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration

.Frida Kahlo (1907 - 1954)

It doesn't matter if people are interested. It's about you taking your stuff and shouting out into the void.

Jadelr and Cristina Cordova, Chasing Windmills, 07-11-2006

It's not your painting anymore. It stopped being your painting the moment that you finished it.

Jeff Melvoin, Northern Exposure, Fish Story, 1994

Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.

Pablo Picasso (1881 - 1973)

There are painters who transform the sun to a yellow spot, but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence, transform a yellow spot into the sun.

Pablo Picasso (1881 - 1973)

There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality.

Pablo Picasso (1881 - 1973)

Each painting has its own way of evolving...When the painting is finished, the subject reaveals itself.

William Baziotes
