When decorating your home, fine art photography and colour prints adds atmosphere and style to the rooms. But what type of image is right for you? Remember that photos are an extension of your personality, so choose wisely to ensure they will continue to appeal to you over the coming years. The artwork’s subject matter must be taken into account as it has to fit your identity, but also consider whether black and white images or colour photos will suit the room best.

The Advantages of a Black and White Image

My abstract black and white images provide eye-catching, geometric shapes that suit any environment. Many modern homes have neutral colours and muted tones, and these dazzling black and white designs help to lift the energy of any room they are displayed in. A room with multiple black and white prints brings uniformity to the room while producing a unique level of depth and character to the walls.

Homes painted in bold colours benefit from the softness of monochrome images because color photos could clash with the existing hues. Black and white prints tend to balance a room. They are multifunctional in any environment because they add style to interiors without disrupting or competing with colour schemes.

Black and white photos have simplicity because the distracting elements of color are stripped away. The viewer focuses on the subject and the composition of the image. A black and white photograph becomes a sophisticated and stylish piece of art through its subdued essence. When aiming for austerity in your decor, remember that the area could end up with an empty feeling instead. To overcome this, a black and white print will introduce a refreshing element to enhance the space without overpowering it.

The Advantages of Color Prints

While black and white images are understated, color prints are the ideal way to enliven a room. With large colorful pictures, you make a statement with your wall art. See my GLOED color prints for examples of futuristic visions that could be the main feature of any room. This neon-inspired abstract art will make your home more exciting and lively.

Or check my Sky, Somewhere, Plant, and D-Paint sections of the website for photos of the natural world that are relaxing, soothing, and healing. This type of wall art revitalizes your spirit whenever you glance at them. It’s the perfect way to brighten a dark room. The green of plants, the blue of oceans and lakes, and the yellow palette of the setting sun bring light and liveliness to dark or drab interiors. As well as brightening your home, you’ll feel inspired as you gaze into these uplifting images.

What’s Best for You?

What does your home need? If you are the minimalist type, a subtle, black and white image will complement this environment. Or choose color images of landscapes to elevate the mood of a room. If you want even more vitality, surround yourself with my abstract colour images to generate dynamic and adventurous energy.
