Decorative Artwork

Decorative artwork describes the use of representational art to add character and interest to a room or feature. Whether painted directly on a wall or painted on a panel attached to the wall, decorative artwork is produced to be an integral part of the building.

Although similar to mural painting, decorative artwork may be characterized as a smaller, isolated image or group of images which although they may be related, and even linked, are not combined as a single picture.

A common example would be a group of panels or images, each of which may have a different subject but a common theme, such as different fruits for a kitchen. Other popular subjects for kitchens include vines, flowers, and food and drink.

Decorative artwork may be very realistic, even creating a trompe l'oeil effect, or a more stylized interpretation of the subject, depending on the effect required.

Click on the decorative painting images to the right for larger pictures and more detail about each project. Some of these are big files so they may take some time to show up.
