Hand-painted hallway and entryway wall art. Hallways are the walls that get walked past, not sat in front of. The art in a hallway should be a horizontal panoramic piece or a square piece that holds the eye as the viewer moves past it. A vertical piece in a hallway reads as a mistake.
Sizing for a hallway
For a long narrow hallway, a series of three to five smaller pieces, 30 by 30 cm each, with 8 to 10 cm between them, reads as a gallery wall. For a wide entryway wall, a single 60 by 90 cm or 90 by 120 cm piece is the right move.
Style
For a minimalist entryway, a wabi-sabi abstract or a soft landscape. For a boho entryway, a colorful floral or a jungle painting. For a traditional entryway, a classical landscape or a still life.
