Photographs and prints that capture motion are quite dramatic. They manage to capture the moment in action, while time is standing still. Some of these pieces are blurred and focus on one area, others capture the entire moment. Both types are perfect for display.  They capture the moment and treasure it eternally, or for as long as you have the piece! Other types of this art are traffic and city lights. The moving light creates a path, while the background is standing still. In motion art work gives a room an element of excitement that should be enjoyed and displayed!

Large abstract pieces are popular right now. These pieces are truly statement pieces that grab your attention and hold it there for a while. This type of art typically uses extra bright colors that either contrast or complement each other. This type of art grabs the viewer’s attention and draws the eye in. This art should be large and in charge. It commands attention within any room.

Multi-canvas paintings and prints are another dramatic type of art. Having the subject matter stretched across two or three canvases creates dimension and excitement. The eye expects the art to be contained on one canvas. When it is stretched onto multiple canvases, interest is instantly created.

Water droplets on glass, backlit with colorful lights are dramatic when used in a rainy climate, although it is beautiful in any setting. With large amounts of rain or cloudy weather, a dark or gloomy atmosphere may invade the home. Art that incorporates this weather, using it to create beauty reminds people about the positive attributes of rain. These types of work can be purchased in an array of colors and sizes. If you appreciate the rain, you will appreciate a piece like this for years to come!
