How To Connect With Your Art

November 6, 2023

In our fast-paced lives, it’s easy to overlook the magic that surrounds us. At Modern Magic, I believe in the power of art to transport you to a world of whimsy and color, offering a respite from the everyday. Learn how to appreciate art mindfully and connect with the nostalgic, whimsical, and colorful elements in my artwork that will also connect you with the magic in your own backyard.

Connect With Your Art Collection

When selecting art for your home, it’s not just about filling empty spaces; it’s about curating a collection that resonates with your personal story. Whether that’s choosing pieces that bring out your inner nostalgia or finding one-of-a-kind pieces you won’t find anywhere else. Here are some tips to help you engage with my artwork on a deeper level and infuse your space with magic:

Go Deeper

Take a moment to stand in front of your art. Get up close and back away slowly to see how the piece changes. Notice the colors, lines, and shapes. See how colors that line up right next to each other influence each other. Think about the technique that went into creating this piece. What was the artist paying attention to? Was their focus on form, shadow and light, color, story? What emotions does it evoke? What parts draws you in? What’s the story behind the piece? Art is a conversation, and when you listen with an open heart, you’ll discover a deeper connection to each piece of art in your home.

Daily Reminders

Place your Modern Magic art in a location you pass by daily. Whether it’s your hallway, kitchen, office or bedroom, let it be a daily reminder that there is magic in the world. The act of mindfully walking by and pausing to appreciate the art can bring a touch of enchantment to your routine.

Rotate and Refresh

Art isn’t meant to be static. Just as the seasons change, consider switching up the artwork throughout your home. This prevents your decor from becoming stagnant and encourages you to appreciate it anew. It’s like a fresh canvas for your home’s narrative. Choose to rotate art from one room to another, keep select pieces in storage, or embrace my favorite trick of layering pieces in the same frame to easily switch out when you need a change.

Share Your Story

Art isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about storytelling. Choose pieces that resonate with your personal journey, experiences, and aspirations. Let the artwork become a mirror of your soul, reflecting the magic within you. Every piece from Modern Magic comes with a story. Whether you choose to read that story and let it become a part of the art or you give your own story to the art, each piece has the power to transport you somewhere.

Shop Modern Magic Art

At Modern Magic, I understand the importance of creating art that transcends trends and touches the heart. My collection is curated with love, offering you an array of pieces that speak to your unique story. My artwork embodies the essence of slow living, allowing you to savor the beauty and meaning behind each piece.

As you explore my collection, remember that choosing art for your home isn’t merely a transaction; it’s a journey of self-discovery. Each piece has been carefully crafted to resonate with your soul, infusing your space with a touch of whimsy and color.

In your quest for choosing art for your home, remember that it’s not just about choosing any art but also about connecting with the essence of each piece. I invite you to take a moment, pause, and immerse yourself in the world of nostalgia, whimsy, and color.
