Elevate Your Home Decor : Mixing and Matching Canvas Art for a Stunning Effect

Your home decor can be reflective of your tastes and preferences. So it may be a good idea to consider canvas art as part of it. This guide will go over how mixing and matching these art pieces can elevate your home decor.

It’s always a good idea to consider some of the best options. At the same time, you need to do some planning ahead of time. With that said, we’ll go over the following suggestions you should follow down below.

Let’s get started with the following.

Choose a color scheme

Before you mix and match canvas art, it’s important to choose a color scheme. This will ensure that everything comes together smoothly. It’s always a good idea to ensure that they flow and blend well as opposed to clashing (which can be an eyesore).

For example, if you are considering pet portraits, you’ll want to find one that will contain the right matching colors. If it has a blue background, you’ll want to add other blue accents throughout the room. This can include a vase or a pillow of the same color or different shades. 

Vary the sizes

It’s always a good idea to mix things up. One of the elements to consider is the size of different art pieces. A large pet portrait can look great with smaller canvases surrounding it or being displayed close by.

One thing to be aware of that you’ll want to balance the sizes to ensure a more cohesive arrangement. Be sure to consider various sizes and arrangements if you’re planning on displaying other art pieces. A large art piece plus a few smaller ones nearby can make it look appealing.

Don’t forget to take the size of the wall into consideration. You want to make sure each art piece has enough space.

Mix it up with different styles

Staying on the idea of mixing things up, there are different styles of canvas art to consider. There’s modern abstract pieces, vintage art, and other types. You’ll want to take a look at what you prefer best.

Furthermore, it’s all about the kind of mood you want to set. As long as the art pieces complement each other, no harm or foul at all. It doesn’t matter what the texture or subject matter may be.

Remember, the colors should match and flow with the color scheme of the room in question. Don’t be afraid to mix up the styles if the mood strikes you.

Use a consistent frame

Using a consistent frame for each piece will be a good idea. Especially if you want to tie them all together. The goal here is to create a cohesive look rather than make it look chaotic.

Your best options for frames are black or white ones. However, you can feel free to choose more unique frames if you believe it complements the art style you choose. When all else fails, there’s always two colors that will go well with any piece of canvas art.

Play with placement

Placement can be challenging. Especially when there are different designs and variations. So it may be a good idea to sketch up a few ideas.

It doesn’t have to be perfect. But enough to make it look aesthetically pleasing to your personal preferences. If you’d like, you can try arranging and rearranging different art pieces.

Alternatively, paper templates can also play a huge role. You can fasten them with tape and play around with different mockups and ideas. All without having to actually move anything around.

Final Thoughts
