A self-taught artist originally from Anaheim, California and now based in Placitas, New Mexico, he builds layered “time capsule” collages from his own photography, reclaimed wood and metal, vintage postcards, maps, and 20th-century print ephemera.

How to Measure a Painting for Your Space

Before purchasing a painting, measure the width and height of the wall area where you plan to place it. Also note any nearby furniture, windows, doorways, or architectural features that may affect how the work fits visually.

If the painting will hang above a sofa, bed, console, or mantel, measure the furniture as well. A common design guideline is to choose artwork that is about two-thirds to three-quarters the width of the furniture below it, though this can vary depending on the look you want.

Be sure to review the painting’s full dimensions, including the frame and depth, since these affect how much space the piece will occupy. To help visualize the scale, mark the artwork’s dimensions on the wall with painter’s tape.

When hanging the work, a common starting point is to place the center of the painting around 57 to 60 inches from the floor, adjusting as needed for furniture placement, ceiling height, and the proportions of the room.

If you are local to Santa Fe or Scottsdale, we are happy to assist with delivery and place the painting in your home so you can see how it looks in the space. This allows you to experience the scale, presence, and placement of the work before making your final decision.
