Selecting art oil painting for your home can be an exciting adventure. The interior space of your home and walls is the best way to express to your guest who you really are. To make things easier for you, here are some tips to get you started.

The oil painting that you are planning to hang onto your wall will attract attention so it is important that you give it room to shine. The wall is often one of the first areas noticed in a room. |
| 2. Buy Art that You Love. Let's be honest be here, there is no right or wrong in choosing the paintings for your home. You like what you like. It should be something you will enjoy having in your home every day. While the rest of your home decor may need to obey a certain rules, you can go crazy with the paintings. |  |
 | 3. Pick the Right Size. The size of the oil paintings will determine whether your house will look finished or incomplete.

A piece with similar colors can work great as well. You can think about your furnishings, pillows, throws and curtains to create a palette of colors to look for in your oil paintings. |
