To make a home truly artistic, consider first how to make legitimate art. Art is legitimate not when there is a painting of a leaf, but when a golden leaf is painted in gold leaf. Of course, all of this should be on a tiny canvas because it is a small idea. So, when someone brings home a picture of a forest night reminiscent of a Robert Frost poem, it needs to go in the map room, because the idea it should get across is “The Road Less Travelled”. Someone who is ‘the light of my life’ might get a picture of a lighthouse to hang in their workspace at home. This is art, and how to bring it into the home in a way that is almost kitschy but only at the second level, because it is a tasteful piece.
Getting this into the home is a simple as looking somewhere that sells home décor and knick-knacks and keeping this second level in mind. As opposed to having something to say, try and read what each piece means and stop and select when something is just right. It can be a fun way to spend time and can be done in little doses on the internet from home or done over a shopping trip out and about. Either way, this is the fun part.
Selecting the correct paint
Consider doing this will every aspect of the home, not just art. Selecting the correct paint can be this precise and well thought out as well. Beyond just plain white walls are so many colors that match and contrast with all the beauty of a Paris fashion show. Not just that, but a paint can make someone feel, just like a painting. That is some of the wonder of our world, that just the right paint can make a bedroom feel like home instead of just a house. That generally being the point to all the decorating, given that no one lives in a museum!
This leads down quite the rabbit hole as someone might just discover that everything is like this. Now the home needs the correct sofa because some have a different comfortable in mind than others. That leads to the correct TV, because widescreen makes the user see more of the picture simultaneously and 4K shows it through the eyes of an eagle. Even these aspects of a home could make for a hobby selecting all the right options that get the most out of a home.
Art can be a wonderful thing to open the mind to, and there is no better way to make an artistic home than learning all of this and trying it out at home. Maybe even try it all out a second time, because the home will look and feel all the better for the time spent on it. Loving a home can be important and doing all this might make one feel perfect forever. A little art can go a long way to making that house this home.
