Inside Art Collectors Homes, by met on Mar 14, 2016 10:49:02 GMT 1, this is the start of the giant wall...have about 10 more pieces to get up, but worked on this yesterday...would love to hear what you think!!  The wall by jamie lauren, on Flickr [...]
I enjoy your enthusiasm, the artwork itself (with notable exceptions) a little less so.
Regarding your hanging, the spacing for me is off in relation to the sizes of the works and their numbers.
In my opinion the visual impact would be enhanced by tightening the space between many of the pieces. Consider a cluster- or salon-style for some of them. Before drilling additional holes into walls, lay everything out on the floor beforehand, adjusting the balance and composition until it looks right to your eyes. The largest or most prominent piece (or pieces) in a cluster usually goes in the centre near the base, to anchor it.
Conversely, one or two works you most highly prize could be hung on their own or given extra surrounding wall space, allowing them to stand out more.
There are plenty of articles online offering helpful ideas and practical tips about hanging art. Here are three I found with a quick search:
www.architectureartdesigns.com/30-amazing-picture-frame-clusters/
www.forbes.com/sites/houzz/2016/02/23/clever-ways-to-arrange-artwork/#1bbc55067f66
www.bhg.com/decorating/home-accessories/wall-art/plan-the-perfect-art-arrangement/
A separate point: Your home seems to benefit from a lot of natural light. When you have the time and funds, replacing the glazing on a few framed pieces with non-reflective glass or acrylic will greatly reduce the reflections and increase your viewing pleasure. With the better quality glazing, in certain light conditions one can't even see it's there.
Good luck to you.

Ouch!. My mum always said if you can't say something nice...
FWITW, IMHO This thread has been amazing, and on any level these places have been above and beyond the rancid chintz-fests, that I regularly get dragged to in order to listen to someone-else's offspring torturing an out of tune violin. I kid you not, if I see one more poster of french bistro art or a car boot sale landscape I will not be responsible for my actions.
and I LOVE Love the Bobba Fett print who is it by?

To me your art looks great and the way it's displayed.
It's displayed with enthusiasm for the art and thats all that matters.

Inside Art Collectors Homes, by Someones Brain on Mar 16, 2016 12:26:09 GMT 1, I don't understand the critique met gets for raising his opinion. That's what we are here for. Only posting if you're 100% positive about the subject you want to reflect on would make this board boring.
I like some of the art that jcookgurl showed in her post, e.g. the Bast. The Stik looks good too. Then there are some pieces I'd never hang in my place. I'm not entitled to say that anymore?
I know it takes some courage to post pics of a very personal environment here and I hope jcookgurl didn't loose her spiritedness just because of some dissaproval of some of her pieces presented on her wall by a few members.
BTW, besides his first comment on the art itself, in my honest opinion met gave some very good advice (that must not get any appreciation?) re: the hanging of the shown prints and art works in the major part (!) of his post. They seem to be somewhat lost on that concrete wall.
(Btw, I like that wall. Is it concrete or how was that effect achieved?)
A re-hanging in a salon-hanging or a Petersburg hanging would definately enhance the optical impact of these pieces. I know it makes a lot more work to hang artworks with some kind of a system (e.g. identical distances between the frames or below and above a imaginary horizontal line) but it's definately worth it.
But I'm not here to speak out for met. As far as I can judge from reading his posts he's mature and reflective enough to do this by himself much better than I could do.

A re-hanging in a salon-hanging or a Petersburg hanging would definately enhance the optical impact of these pieces. I know it makes a lot more work to hang artworks with some kind of a system (e.g. identical distances between the frames or below and above a imaginary horizontal line) but it's definately worth it. But I'm not here to speak out for met. As far as I can judge from reading his posts he's mature and reflective enough to do this by himself much better than I could do.
Couldn't agree more. I read it as nothing but constructive.
One question though. What's Petersburg hanging?
I don't understand the critique met gets for raising his opinion. That's what we are here for. Only posting if you're 100% positive about the subject you want to reflect on would make this board boring. I like some of the art that jcookgurl showed in her post, e.g. the Bast. The Stik looks good too. Then there are some pieces I'd never hang in my place. I'm not entitled to say that anymore? I know it takes some courage to post pics of a very personal environment here and I hope jcookgurl didn't loose her spiritedness just because of some dissaproval of some of her pieces presented on her wall by a few members. BTW, besides his first comment on the art itself, in my honest opinion met gave some very good advice (that must not get any appreciation?) re: the hanging of the shown prints and art works in the major part (!) of his post. They seem to be somewhat lost on that concrete wall. (Btw, I like that wall. Is it concrete or how was that effect achieved?)

Inside Art Collectors Homes, by Deleted on Mar 16, 2016 12:53:31 GMT 1, I know me and met have had our differences in the past  but his comments were very fair, jcookgurl I do not think Met's comments were anything but polite and helpfully constructive.
It is not as easy as one might think to hang a group of pictures together and make it work.
Good points on closing the gaps and the comments on natural light.
