Buying Original Art? Think Small for a Big Impact!

As an artist, I do not only create and sell art, but I’m also a collector. I love acquiring pieces myself. When people think about buying art, they often picture a ‘masterpiece’ above the sofa—one large, eye-catching piece that reflects their personality. But art doesn’t have to be big to make an impact.

My Own Collection

Most of the artworks I have purchased are modest in size, and they don’t hang above the sofa. I’ve bought pieces as a reminder of an adventure, because I admired the artist’s work (and wanted to understand their technique), or simply because they made me happy. Some artworks on my walls were gifts, and of course, there’s one I created myself. Together, these pieces tell a personal story—where I’ve been, what I love, and what inspires me

Large or Small?

It doesn’t really matter whether an artwork is large or small, though smaller pieces are often more budget-friendly. What truly matters is that the art speaks to you and makes your heart beat faster. Still, it’s interesting to consider how artwork size affects a space.

Large artworks naturally command attention and can be admired from a distance, while smaller pieces invite you to come closer and examine them in detail. If you want to create a cozy, intimate atmosphere, smaller artworks are an excellent choice.

What a Small Artwork Can Do

Smaller pieces of art allow you to make bold choices without overwhelming a space. A small artwork can brighten up a dull corner with vibrant color or intriguing texture. They can evoke emotion, preserve memories, or even be grouped together to form a stunning gallery wall.

Most of the artworks I create are on the smaller side. If you’ve seen something on my website that caught your eye, don’t hesitate to reach out—I’d love to help you find the perfect piece!
