Thoughts on keeping the current art over the couch and this piece near the slider? I am wondering if the dark greens will looks good opposite the dark green chairs

The largest it comes though is 30x 22

Any thoughts on what size art would be appropriate for this wall?

I am thinking about reaching out to the artist to see if the last print can be made bigger than the largest offered size (30x22). I would prefer a print, but then do I frame similar to the frames on the gallery wall, with a white oak frame and a large mat?

This such a rich statement piece….

Bncaew, have you looked for art on art.com, greatbigcanvas.com or a similar website? Not originals but lots to choose from and you can choose a frame as an option. I like the vertical orientation for above your couch and still think your current piece above the couch would look nice on the patio door wall. The trick, as you mentioned earlier, is finding the right piece over the couch that connects with the feel of the room. Too many bright purples and blues may not feel right?

Thanks all. Julie, I so appreciate that you took the time to go to one of those websites. Thank you! While I love the depth of that piece, it doesn’t really excite me. I’m going to keep looking.

No problem..enjoyed looking at the beautuful art…. the colors just enhanced the leather sofa so beautifully.

I am a little stuck on this painting. I have spent an embarrassing amount of hours looking at art, and I keep coming back to this one. I like what it represents, I like the relaxing feel.. I just enjoy looking at it. I agree with Lisa that the colors are a bit dark to work with the other art, but as I am ordering a print, I am thinking that it may be worth it to ask the artist if it would be possible to “soften” the colors a bit. Am I crazy?

The other greens in the room:

The other option would be to do this square mount sinai over the couch with the “Tashlich” (girl and boy by the river) painting. I don’t love the mock-ups of the suggested vertical art over the couch, but love a square. Julie, does a square help? And, is this too much blue?

I love these two together. But do they work with the room?

Thinking of you today and praying for peace for Israel!! And the entire Middle East. Gosh can’t we all just get along!! As to art in family room, I am going to think on it a bit more.

These pictures have a very cool tone. You want something with more warmth to it.

Appreciate the thoughts and prayers. I’m doing anything not to think.

These are two pieces that I think are warm in color, but I am having difficulties recognizing the differences. I don’t know the price of the second piece, I emailed the artist but until she responds, I don’t know if it’s even an option. The problem with these is that they are horizontal pieces, with much less height than the art I currently have. And Julie (and Flo?) were advising me to add height

The cool tones are like water…blues, lavenders, purples, pinks, etc

Warm tones are browns , greens, oranges, soft yellows, golds, etc. And we are suggesting warm tone art for over the sofa and between the chairs. That is why the large piece you have does work in the room. It has all the warm tones.😉

Art over sofa just goes so nicely in the room :). Seems like everything works in there at the sofa looks great! If you want to bring art between the chairs, golds, greens, browns like Gls was mentioning are warm colors.

After looking for a long time, I think I am going to keep the piece I have over the couch. But, I really want to add something next to the door. Thoughts on this? The artist can make it for me in pretty much any size, and I can go with a print or a canvas. On the one hand, I prefer the canvas if everyone will be brushing past. On the other hand, would a framed print add more interest? Also, what size do I need? Was thinking a 40x30 but again, anything is possible here.

It is all less colorful than my other art but that’s what this room seems to be dictating?

How about the framed print above your couch and larger piece next to door? It might help to try the large print by the door to see if you like it there.

Wouldn’t this piece be too small for over the couch? The couch is 84” long, so I thought the piece needed to be 44” long at minimum? Or am I taking the “rules” too literally?

No rules. You have a good eye. Are there pieces you own that you could use to try different sizes above the couch? Helps to play around.

2/3 or 3/4 of couch is better.

I can definitely play around with other pieces.
I’m just taking the time to ensure that I’m excited about the piece and not just getting it because it “works”. Like I mentioned, I am really drawn to more colorful pieces. I think I am beginning to understand what would work better in here, just struggling to find it. This piece almost feels too safe, so I am going to think about it.

But, maybe I need safe with another piece and the family pictures in this room?

I love that piece and yes it goes! Safe is good in here I think. Tape out a area on the wall there. The wall to the left of the door? I’m thinking a frame like over the couch piece or even a thin black like the family photos could be cohesive for you in there. You can go more colorful in the dining area, you think? And you have the den? Wasn’t there two other rooms besides this one you were looking for art? To be honest, I got confused :).

Hi Alice! I’m always looking for art everywhere! Yes, the art in my dining room, living room, dinette (that is yet to be framed), and study is all bold and colorful. This room has very different colors in general which is why I’ve been struggling.
Floater frame on art over couch is white, frames with family photos are white oak (like the floor) with a white mat.
I will hopefully tape out a 40x 30 by the door. If that doesn’t work, I’ll try lisalane’s idea of placing another piece over the couch.

I think the new print is the best so far of the options you have presented. I would put it on the side wall. Tape out a size you think would look good on that wall.😉

And you can’t go wrong with family pictures.

This is a 30x40. Thoughts?

The tape is too low, but just a general idea.

One more:

And 30x50. I want height but this feels ridiculous

It's good & balance. don't go past the top pf door frame.

Thanks happy! So you like the 30x50 or 30x40? I won’t go beyond the top of the doorframe with either

And not past the sides of couch.

I’m thinking the 30x40 is plenty. It’s not a hefty piece as far as design, a bit delicate actually and I think it will look great there :).

Thanks! Do you think a canvas or a print?

I like framed myself especially since all the other pieces are framed in the room?

It’s my fav of all your finds so far :).

Thanks Alice! I think I prefer a canvas (even though it costs more up front) as people may brush up against it and the canvas would be less likely to break. But, a frame print would probably give more interest…

Or you could go dark on the frame to tie in with the legs of coffee table but I’m afraid that would take away from the art itself?

Can you order just the print and have it mounted on a frame as a canvas or does it only come one way or another? Reason I ask, is you could get it in the space as just a print and see how you feel about it then?

I think it’s one or the other but I can confirm

See what the pros say here!

I read that canvas is a more modern look.

I got a large canvas for our guest bath, but ended up adding a thin frame, no glass. It just needed a border perhaps 🤷‍♀️

.

Have to show light on, we have very tall ceilings and added a transom above the door ;).
