What to Consider When Printing Photos For Your Home

According to Statista, in 2021, 36.7 million art market transactions were recorded worldwide. Many homeowners are turning to their own digital photos to use as home decor. Art printing is an exciting way to create an interior that reflects your own personal style. If you're looking for the right art printing service to convert your digital photos into art for your home, consider the following points when you're printing photos for your home.

Theme

If you're planning a complete interior renovation for your home, it'll be easy to choose the photos that you want to be the center point of your home decor. When you already have your interior design set up the way you want it, you can use printed photos as accent pieces. The art and wall hangings that you select for your living room can help tie the room together and make it even more inviting.

Sizing

There are certain areas of a home where wall hangings are a natural fit. Rectangular pieces above your sofa or two complementary pieces on either side of your dining room door are just two spaces where it's common to hang art. Wherever you're planning to hang your new artwork, be sure that the piece fits the space. A landscape photograph that is oriented on a horizontal plane will look best in a long and narrow space. Take the time to consider how the piece and its shape will affect how it looks hanging on the wall.



Printing Options

The two most important factors to consider when printing photographs are the quality of the paper and the ink. If you want to print photographs and other artwork that's suitable for framing, it's important that you have the right equipment. Digital photographs and art images are always going to look best when they're printed by a professional art printing service. Upgraded printing paper that's suitable for photographs is a must-have. If you're going to print your images at home, be sure to use the right tools.

Lost in the Light

We recently framed a Platinum palladium print with Morpho butterfly wings for Jennifer Robison. It is framed in a white oak moulding with archival materials and Museum Glass for ultimate clarity. You can pick it up for a steal at the 14th Annual Off the Wall Auction at the Masur Museum. You can bid on several great pieces by a number of talented artists. The auction ends Friday.

Be sure to check out Jennifer’s website for more of her fantastic work.
