THE LOOK OF YOUR PHOTO

How would you describe the space for your wall art? What changes would you like for your photo? Just a general go-through is where I use my judgement to make it look the best it can be at the size you prefer? But you can mention; crop-resize, mood change, color change, black and white/duotone, painting effect or collage alterations.

Art is personal, but if I am altering a photo for you a starting point for me is helpful. It's especially important to know how large it should be to fit your planned placement.
If you don't know how to describe your decor, here are some style examples. (Don't take this wild background as an indication that other styles can't be created! Look at your space, what are the colors you like?


Mid-Century Modern; refined, minimalist silhouettes; it played with ways to use materials like molded plastic, plywood, and aluminum.

Industrial; creatively using exposed steel and brick, distressed wood (like log cabin meets factory).

Coastal Cottage; beach house with subtle beach colors and of course blue is in there somewhere as an accent. Driftwood, seashells nets and more.

Scandinavian (think Ikea); cool colors like white or grey, balanced object proportions, orderly.

Bohemian; warm, rich colors and patterns. more "lived in" with world-wide, ethnic accents.

Farmhouse, (think French, not Wisconsin); white and light, warm and neutral colors with pops of yellow or blue.

Urban Modern; elegant, artistic use of geometric and vintage items.

Shabby Chic; putting together vintage elements (flea market)...your grandmother's attic treasures updated with a modern take. Colors are soft and light, but with lots of stronger and vibrant accents, paint on furniture is distressed.
