PAINTING – My paintings in a room?
010607 by ~hanswendland on deviantART
“What silliness…” or does it really help?
A number of friends, both artists and technologist, have recently sent me links and references to images on the web of paintings being showcased in photos of actual living spaces. Each lauding the trend of showing paintings in this way, which gives viewers a perspective of how a canvas or photo may look in a “living room” setting.
I have to say that for my amusement I tried “stuffing” some of my canvases in these photos with Photoshop, as I found a large number of these “rooms” on the web. This was kind of fun for minute or two, I realized that most of these Photoshop constructions on the web are rarely accurate in size and proportions and the “room” image never matches the lighting of the painting…
At the end, this way of showing art is great for selecting decorative art that must conform to a space or a “room”, and of course no way to consider the art itself.
Yes everyone has a room, yes everyone has a space they need to fill, but is this really any way to consider the art?
The couches look great…
