1. Do your research and discover your style
When shopping for art online, as with any other purchase of value, it's important to do your research. Before making a purchase, go a bit more to affirm your curiosity and discover more about the artist whose work you're interested in. Also, obtain a basic awareness of artistic styles and the various types of paintings offered. You may refine your taste by exploring pages of art and decor and seeing what appeal to you.
2. Think about the size and space
Despite reading the dimensions, one of the most difficult aspects of buying art online is imagining the size of the artwork. If you have a certain location in mind for displaying artwork, use a measuring tape to determine how big the area is. How much extra room you'll need on all sides, and how much space the frame will take up. These inquiries, no matter how simple, are critical.

3. Think about your decor
It's important to consider how the piece will fit in with your existing decor. Adding artwork to empty space is an excellent way to add color without having to redecorate. A colorful painting may quickly brighten a space or create a contrast with existing furniture and decor. Another thing to consider is your house's aesthetic. While traditional art can work in a modern setting, keep an eye out for obvious mismatches. Consider the color scheme, mood, or style of the area you intend to show it in.

4. Get to know the artist
There's something special about getting to know an artist before purchasing their work. Take your time and talk to the artist. Find out what motivates them and their work. Knowing the artist's or the artwork's backstory adds intimacy and worth that extends beyond the visual appeal and elevates the creation to a higher level. Choosing art is a profoundly personal process. That’s why at Masterpiece by IS we have 1 on 1 consultations when buying art and when customizing paintings.
