Finding the right size

See it to scale

A simple rule: choose art about two-thirds the width of the furniture below it, and hang it so the center sits around 57–60" from the floor.

Where it hangsArtwork width to look for
Above a sofa (84–96")48–60", or a pair of 30–36"
Above a queen or king bed40–60"
Above a console or sideboard30–48"
Above a fireplace mantel36–48", narrower than the mantel
Entry, hallway or nook16–30"

Sizes are the artwork itself — a frame adds about 2" overall, and a paper print's mat adds more.

Description

ORIGINAL ARTWORK
Acrylic on Paper
Art Size: 13" x 19"
Framed Size 18" W x 24" H x 1" D

Raw yet refined, Coastal Ink No. 1 channels the ever-changing nature of the shoreline through bold, expressive brushwork and a palette grounded in misty blues and charcoal against soft white. This original painting evokes the feeling of ink meeting water—fluid, fleeting, and spontaneous—capturing the push and pull of tide and sky in a minimalist yet emotionally resonant composition.

Created on BFK Rives paper, this original painting is matted and finished in a white frame. Signed on the back and ready to hang. 

Pairs beautifully with “Coastal Ink No. 2”.

From the studio

Every piece begins in Julia’s Bridgeport studio

“I can fall madly in love with the sparkle from the edge of a gold glass vase, or obsess over the texture of a stone found along a walk. As a way to hold onto these bits of beauty, I started creating art.”

— Julia Contacessi
