What to do with that giant empty wall space

Just this year I purchased a huge colorful rug for my living room and none of my existing art or accessories seemed to match it well. I finally decided to create a large landscape piece to serve as my focal point. I'll post about that piece and the process of creating it another day, but for now, I want to share a bit about how a dear friend, Gina, found herself in that same situation and what she did about it.

Gina recently renovated her beautiful home. It looks amazing with her updated and relaxing cool color palette of blues and grays. The trouble was, now she had a large empty wall and her old art just didn't match the new vibe.

She enlisted my help and we together decided that a soft, abstract piece would blend best. She wanted to use an existing high quality frame that she had, so we decided on a large format watercolor rather then a canvas.

It was a thrill to create the delicate balance of textures, lights, and darks on such a large empty sheet of watercolor paper.

As I worked on this custom piece for her, we talked about how she wanted a little something meaningful added in. Something that she could look at and smile. With that in mind, I tucked in a little dove to remind her family of a special member that had recently passed on to heaven. Can you spot it on the top left corner?

Now she has a piece that suites her taste in the environment she loves to spend time in. If you are remodeling, buying a new home, or simply giving your room a refresh, a custom art piece can marry together the elements of your space. It can also serve to unite your color palette.

If you've been looking around, but have not found what you want for your wall art, consider having something custom-made. You can send me photos of your wall, your preferred decor style, and your color palette. I'll give you a price on creating a unique piece just for your home.
