The beauty of hanging frames is that there really is no right or wrong way to do it. Of course, there are certain guidelines, but I find the most exciting displays are those arranged either by circumstance or by incident. Although I will discuss the basic guidelines with my clients, I tend to get far better results when I work intuitively. In fact, the more I try to intellectualize frame layouts, the less they seem to work - do you find this, too?
Now we all have our magic days but I'm not privy to when mine are due or how to book one in - although there's nothing quite like a deadline to focus my mind; a cup of tea, shared pencils and really good banter get me going. How about you, how do you get yourself in the mood for success?
These images are great, aren't they? This blog from the right bank is fast becoming a daily habit...
pots of tea are alays good, collaboration is definately good! and a bit of extra slepp usually helps me too : )
ReplyDeletein love with that last image, big time.
Sleep! Yes, good call - I think this helps with the good banter, too...
ReplyDeleteLast image floats my boat, my favourite boots and bicycle, too.
I love the slight randomness of these arrangements. They are not too contrived.
ReplyDeleteYes, that's it - anything contrived gives the game away; it's all got to look effortless!
