Frequently Asked Questions (FQAs) About Painting Styles for Living Rooms

  1. How do I choose the right size painting for my living room?
    A good rule of thumb is that a painting should cover about two-thirds of the width of your sofa or furniture. For a gallery wall, mix various sizes for a dynamic look.

  2. Can I mix different art styles in one space?
    Absolutely! Combining styles creates a unique, personal look. Use a common element, such as color or theme, to tie the pieces together.

  3. What’s the best way to hang my paintings?
    Ideally, the center of your painting should be at eye level, about 150-160 cm from the floor. For a gallery wall, experiment with different layouts using paper templates before hanging.

  4. Are Picfee’s prints museum quality?
    Yes, all our prints are crafted with premium materials, high-quality photo paper, and advanced printing techniques to ensure museum-grade quality. We collaborate with renowned print labs to accurately represent the artist’s vision and guarantee the quality of every artwork.
