There are many different ways you can spice up your home with works art. Ranging from a child’s room to the kitchen, unusual and unique decor can make any room stand above the rest.

Creative Kids Room

Almost all kids enjoy fun things to look at while they are in their room. Their room is probably cluttered with toys and the walls might be filled with their homemade artwork. I think most kids can agree that they love to watch cartoons. If it’s not watching actual cartoons, most kids like the way cartoon characters look. If your child has a love for cartoon looking characters and you’d like to incorporate cartoon posters into their bedrooms somehow, FulcrumGallery.com has a wide variety of cartoon art to choose from. These pieces of art would look great hanging above your child’s bed or on the opposite wall where they keep all of their own artwork. Finding a piece of art that matches your kid’s color scheme won’t be hard because there are many different colored cartoon posters to choose from.

Casual Chic

In our own bedrooms we like to create a safe place for ourselves. Somewhere that is filled with things that represent us and who we are as a person as well as the things we love to look. Your bedroom is a place that you can go to calm down when life gets hectic so you should decorate it with things that make you happy. What better way to create a calming environment than decorating with artwork? If you are fond of calm yet beautiful pieces of art, casual chic art is just for you. Many of the art at http://www.fulcrumgallery.com/c35168/casual-chic-art.htm offers a variety of colored art that can match your color preferences. The best part about casual chic art is that two or three pieces in a room are not going to overpower each other because they are individually simple on their own and accent each other. Add flair to that bare light blue wall in your room and add a casual chic art piece.

Unusual Teen

There’s something about teenagers that makes them feel the urge to express themselves anyway possible. Some teens spend a lot of time in their rooms and don’t mind not ever leaving if they didn’t have to. If your teen has a liking for unique and unusual things, artwork can be a great way to let them show that liking. From landscapes to unusual objects, any type of art can be a good way to bring life to a bedroom. Allow your teen to add flair to the study area in their room or beside their bed, by adding unique art that they would enjoy. Many artworks have different colors in them and would look great with any neutral color scheme.

Whether it’s for you or for someone you know, art is a way that people can jazz up the rooms of their home. With endless possibilities on how to accent a room, consider cartoon art for your kids or unusual art for your teen.

Ever since the creation of the first camera in the 1800’s the new art form of photography has been rapidly growing in popularity. Once a cumbersome and difficult device to use, camera’s have advanced well beyond their original design and purpose. Photography has given way to allowing artists to capture real life instances and things that gather and evoke just as much emotion, if not more so, that paintings can produce. Photography is not limited to a canvas, as it opens up the possibilities of capturing the world as it is, documenting historical events, and offering human reflection as a picture is worth a thousand words.

Captures The World As It Is

Photography captures the wonder and beauty of the world and offers it to everyone to experience and see. World wide traveling photographers offer windows into exciting new places and environments by shrinking the world and making it more accessible. Ansel Adams was known for photographing the natural wonders of the United States in breath taking photographs that pull the viewer right into the scenery of winding canyons, as in his stunning black and white nature photograph, “Canyon de Chelly National Monument.” Wildlife photographs like Ron D’Raine’s endearing photo of two Giraffes entitled “Makulu” captures the tender heartedness of the animal kingdom.

Documents Historical Events

Photography has aided in capturing some of the most profound moments in history so that those who may not have been able to experience that moment may see for themselves the historical gravity of the time. One of the most famous photographs ever taken, Charles C. Ebbets photo, “Lunchtime Atop a Skyscraper, c.1932,” forever stiles a moment in time, as construction workers take a lunch break from atop the unfinished Rockefeller Center, their feet dangling over the city of New York far below during the Great Depression. Martin Luther King Jr. was one of the most influential and inspiring men in history, and his speeches were captured on film like in the black and white photograph “Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Speaking (#8)”.  There are so many more important and breathtaking historical photographs that inspire and evoke change.

A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words

As cliché of a saying as it is, photography produces pictures that raise question and wonder about the movement and found within a photograph. Photography has documented the human condition in its rawest and purest form. Captured in a hotel room, the scene backlit through bright curtained windows, the photograph “John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy” by Hank Wlaker, conveys the late President sitting on the edge of a bed across from Robert F. Kennedy, both shrouded in the moody dimness of a shadow. The photograph, “Hot Italian Pizza,” by artist unknown, is a beautiful representation of humanity, as an Italian pizza shop owner is captured through the neon lit and advertised window of his pizza parlor, a young woman looking over his shoulder as he works. The collection of black and white photographs is certainly worth a thousand words.

It is clear that photography is a vast and encompassing art form. It has no limitations, capturing some of the most breathtaking scenery and wildlife from around the world, to documenting key scenes from important events in history. The greatest part though, is that each picture  is worth a thousands words and allows for endless wonder and interpretation to abound. No matter what style of photography you prefer, there is sure to be a photograph that you will want to proudly display.
