Do you buy art to hang it on your wall?

[碇 シンジン 27,431]

I recently bought another framed piece to hang on my wall so I was wondering if other people do it.

I personally find the walls of a house quite empty without something in there to bring life and breath fresh air into the environment.

Before I used to only appreciate the art through a computer screen but now that I see those same pieces framed on my wall it really is something special. The experience is completely on a different level. Especially if you have communicated with the artist personally or through any kind of system. I think that only adds to the value of the piece.

From the two pieces I currently have I think at the moment the one where I was in contact with the artist is speaking more to me than the one where I wasn't. 

If you have any thought feel free to say them.

I do not - the walls of my dorm are distinctly barren lol. The simplicity of an undecorated room is actually soothing for me

I wish I had some money to get a painting for my room's walls. I've got a bunch of posters and puzzles and even a image of penguins on canvus that I got at an indian powwow a few years ago, but a genuine art/painting would really add to my room.

[Retro*Derpy 3,183]

I wouldn't mind getting a few posters, but nothing at the moment.

[Pr0m4NV14 839]

Nah, I make art to hang on my fridge.

to have some art commissioned digitally is great in itself, but when you print it and hang it on the wall, it becomes something really special, especially if its something you created(an OC of yours etc)I used to have my wall filled with art from my favorite artists, and my own art mixed in between, i moved recently however and only took my favorite amongst them with me

My friends like to paint landscapes over the walls every new year, making entire rooms into statements of art.

My room is painted with tones of indigo and violet. No pictures or other drawings, since I like the walls to be empty for visualizing entire new environments with more ease.

If I can then I would, a most wanted piece is a painting of Patrick Star, similar to this:

No really, I'd love one.

Yes, I own more art/decorative stuff for my walls than I have walls. I have several things for my walls that are just on the ground in some corner because I don't currently have room for them on my walls.  

[Justin_Case001 4,888]

Yes indeedily-do.  I recently bought a large canvas print of a fan painting of Ponyville from Redbubble.  I love wall art.

I don't like empty walls, at least ones in my apartment.  If I wouldn't have any art on my home it would fell too empty and somehow 'asymmetrical', since my pieces of furniture aren't that tall. Without paintings there wouldn't be anything in the upper part of my flat. When I moved in my current apartment it took me a while to figure out why it looked so off... Couple of posters I had as a 'first-aid' fixed this and made the place look more balanced and less empty.

Hanging some paintings or framed photos on the wall is an easy way to make room feel more lively and warm. As Cerberus put it, I have more art to put in my walls than I have room for them  Some are real paintings I have bought from artists I like and some are just framed postcards and pages of newspapers that I think would look nice on the wall.

I have two posters and one very big lord of the rings banner in my room. I am planning on getting more art because I really like how it makes my room more cozy.

[PoisonClaw 8,164]

The walls of my room are practically plastered with dozens of posters I've picked up at conventions here and there, so I would have to say yes.

[Envy 6,161]

I have tons of woodwind art and some general music art hanging up. Some of it I've bought, some of it has been made for me, and one is a photograph I took. I was lucky to find an artist who drew a drawing of the bassoon, saxophone, and oboe (the holy trio!) each, and I have them hanging up just like in my signature.

I bought a painting of a detailed map of Azeroth for my parents for Christmas... but never bought art for myself, other than a poster or two... which I lost when moving.

[Brony Number 42 10,069]

We just hung some of my pony art that I got from Bronycon.

I have a lot of Star Wars posters that adorn the walls of my bedroom, but a lot of them have become obscured by shelves overstuffed with toys. I love my posters but I don't have enough space to put them all up. 

In the rest of my apartment I like to hang my mom's paintings. She has the most beautiful Impressionist style and her artwork has a three dimensional quality that makes me feel I can walk right into the paintings themselves. 

Art is a beautiful thing; much better than stark white walls.

A few posters here and there that I picked up at cons, some of which are autographed. My girlfriend and I like to paint, so there's plenty of things in the living room that we/she made. Most of our paintings are fairly abstract, but it's oddly satisfying simply putting paint to canvas, even if you aren't trying to make anything in particular. You can also easily coordinate colors with the rest of your furniture and decor if you make your own art.

[DixonTheAdversary 1,632]

Yes. My rooms just seems to bland without some sort of poster or something on the wall.

[Rainbow Dash 1,472]

I have all these posters from Pony conventions as well as some fancy pictures, but i cant hang them up. I'm not allowed to put holes in the walls in my apartment.

[Phosphor 11,529]

I have a couple of cool paintings of fish hanging on my wall, but I usually don't buy a lot of art because family portraits take up a lot of my wall space. I could possibly make room for an Applejack portrait or something. lol

[Ganondorf8 11,303]

I do have one painting hanging on my bedroom wall which was bought for me by my brother as a Christmas present in 2016. It depicts the Tardis from Doctor Who exploding though I forget when it actually happened in the new series--I know it's somewhere during Matt Smith's tenure.

[GuerrierCosmique 146]

Sure. The most astoundishing work of art I have is a map of Duckburg, the city of the Barksian Disney Duck comicbook universe that a real cartographer worked on for 13 years.

[Midnight Solace 5,132]

No, I draw the art myself. 

[Lucky Bolt 35,063]

I do, yeah. Depends on what it is though and I try to keep my walls at least halfway NOT cluttered.
