Size Matters With Oversized Art

black and white photograph wall mural for 1st OptionAdd dimension, depth and visual interest by enlarging artwork to fill a wall.

Great spaces, with big empty walls, can sometimes be a challenge to decorate, but they needn’t be.  Make a statement with a grand work of art.  Modern technology allows high quality printing for a large format Photowall…  so many options, so little time.  It’s simple (and becoming more budget friendly) to customize with scale or color.  Dress a wall in a black and white classic style photograph, as shown in this dressing room.

    Can’t help but wonder what Liz and Audrey would think of themselves huge and all over peoples’ walls! Love the Spidey play/bedroom.

      Spidey is my fav too, although I am more of a Batman gal. I think Liz would wonder why more of us don’t have her plastered on our walls!
