How to hang artwork on this wall?
I have a wonderful staircase with large wall. There is a chandelier, which is - unfortunately - not central. So If I wanted to hang the artwork centrally on the wall, part of it (a third perhaps) would be behind the chandelier. The option is to hang it closer to the wall with the window, but then part of the wall behind the chandelier is bare, and the whole thing looks a bit off centre. Do you have any ideas how I could sort the problem out? See the pictures to visualise what I'm talking about. What could I hang on the wall, and in what manner? thank you very much!

Comments (97)I'd take this as a great opportunity to have some fun and explore making your own piece of art. From the space (that I can see), a canvas would suit being placed above, either leaned against the surface or elevated. I'd lead towards to being elevated. I'd say get a cheap canvas with some oil based paint and just try different shapes and different ways to add the paint to the canvas, don't try to make actual shapes but try blending colours (a spray drinking bottle makes an excellent tool for adding blending) in an abstract style. In term of colours, I really feel burnt orange and a mix between duck egg blue and royal blues would make a very eye-catching scheme for that area. If you do try a bit of art, make sure to send us an image! I guarantee you'll have fun doing this, and you'll be surprised how well it could turn out. Good luck!...See MoreArt work advice

4 years agoI agree with colourhappy. I don't think the wall needs artwork. I do think that the window needs something. A roman blind? From just under the ceiling (so the window seems taller) to halfway the window?

4 years agoMisha, I didn't think about shadows! Something to definitely keep in mind. Originally the plan was to hang a large mirror there, to reflect the sparkles and light, but I can't afford such a huge mirror, and anything too small will look silly.
During the day, when the day is sunny, the chandelier throws 'sparkles' on the walls around, a bit magical :) (and it's not even lit!)
I will definitely put up a photo when I finish the wall, but it may be a while before I finally make a decision :O
