Lighting for your precious paintings is absolutely essential for the right look for your art. No doubt when you buy an original artwork it is loved by you and also one that you wish to display in your personal space be it your home or office.
Lighting for Your Artworks and How correct lighting will influence your art display and art sale?lights are so important that if you knew how this influences sale of a painting, every artist would pay a lot more attention on art display with correct lighting.
Lights can work wonders to your art on walls. A dull environment or low lightning can elevate or mar the effects and visual appearance of your paintings. I have noticed my old painting photographs, so dull, blurred and they do not even show the exact art how it looks.
Try displaying a painting in the dark corner of a gallery, no one will view it. It is understood that bright lights attract more visitors to your artwork. Similarly when you are hanging paintings in your home, keep in mind the lighting factor to show the best beauty of your wall art.
Focused lighting helps to bring out the best in the wall art and when appropriately selected give the art another added beauty. Lights for artworks are in thousands of varieties from simplistic to ornate ones serving different unique functions.
From top ceiling installed lights to central lights to base ones and focused ones they each fulfill different functions. Floor lights, concealed lights and so much more.
Without the proper lighting arrangements your artworks will look dull and not give out the desired effects and visual appeal to the eye. There may be some shadows, some dull parts and some too bright parts in your paintings without proper lighting. However unique the art and whatever you have paid for it if there is no proper lighting the effects are never the same, enjoy your awesum art with appropriate and best lighting arrangements!
You may be tempted to not think about anything else except the original painting but displaying correctly is also important for the buyers to view the art. A gloomy room full of beautiful paintings will not give much sales.
Yet over whelming bright lights sometimes may hurt the emotions and subject of the art displayed there.
Hence it is essential to choose correct lighting to do justice to the art, colours in the painting and the subject displayed there.
5 points you will think off while arranging lighting effects for displaying art, whether you are an artist or an art buyer displaying art this knowledge will help you. p
1) Check the colours. bright colours can do away with less light. dull colours may require brighter lights.
2) Subject in the painting, if spiritual may require soft lighting. Strong lighting over spiritual paintings will create shar feng shui energy.
3) Oil paintings that are varnished may require indirect lighting when displaying them. Otherwise they will reflect back and one is unable to view the painting clearly.
4) Geometric and colourful abstracts are live energy. they need to be hanged in natural lighted areas to spread the energy. If the room is bright with direct sunlight or indirect sunlight for full day you will need less artificial lighting near the painting.
5) In art galleries choose the space where it does justice to your art. Large painting will require appropriate lighting surrounding it. Small sized artworks will need base, to or side ways lighting , that is focused lighting to bring out its beauty. Otherwise small sized paintings will get lost in the large wall spaces and buyers will just pass by without giving it a second look.
