selecting the proper size wall portrait  

 

 

 

“No matter what happens during the day, coming home to our family portrait always puts a smile on my face and a feeling of love in my heart. 

Thank you so much for helping us choose a larger size than we would have normally considered. This portrait is one of our most prized possessions!” – Candice Brown Encino

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our clients love to select one high impact or statement portrait that showcases their family and can be displayed in an area of their home where they can enjoy seeing it daily. We always advise our clients to choose areas in their homes where they ‘live’ the most, but also where others will see their portrait! Once you have selected your favorite image, the second most important decision you’ll make will be the appropriate portrait size for your wall.  There are three main considers for that decision.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. Room Size: Consider where the portrait might hang.  Is the ceiling height 8 feet or 15 feet?  How large is the wall and the room?  Can you see it from 20 feet away? These factors play a large role in determining the best size. Your family room, formal living or dining room, the foyer as you enter your home – all are very popular choices for where to hang portrait art.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Face size: Seeing everyone’s expression is very important. For an average size room, with a viewing distance of 8-10 feet, a face height of at least 4″ to 6″ is recommended. Any smaller and expressions are lost, and you won’t get the viewing pleasure you deserve.

3. Viewing distance will also determine portrait size. Again, we recommend face sizes in the portraits to be at least 6″ based on an average viewing distance of eight to ten feet.  

This family portrait will be one of the most impressive captures of your family to date – showcase it in style!
