Bigger isn't always better.

Within the world of art, size has long been associated with grandeur and impact.

But one way of thinking of things has always bored me. So let's challenge that narrative and embrace the power of little luxuries, those small, even tiny art pieces that spark joy in our everyday lives. Here are a few things smaller works of art offer that are a bit different than their larger peers:

Intimacy and Intricacy:

The modest size of these treasures invites us to lean in closer, in fact it's a reflexive action. We get closer to see the piece and in the process we can appreciate the intricate details, the brushstrokes and craftwork that may be overlooked in a larger piece.

Accessibility and Affordability:

While there are always exceptions to this rule, generally collecting smaller artwork offers an accessible entry, allowing us to engage with artists that may otherwise be out of financial reach.

Versatility and Display Options:

These tiny artworks can be easily incorporated into our homes and are perfect for adding a little happy in surprising spaces. Who doesn't get a giggle from finding a cheeky photograph behind a door they just closed? Or what about a small painting bedside? And of course staging a bookshelf with small sculptures adds another texture of joy in your home.

Artistic Diversity:

Smaller art pieces open up a world of possibilities for grouping diverse mediums and subjects. Instead of looking for one huge piece, we can arrange several smaller pieces across a wide range of artistic styles, genres, and mediums, creating a rich and varied collection.

The Happiness of a Bright Spot:

In our daily lives, it's often the small things that bring us the greatest joy. These mini masterpieces act as a little luxury, a reminder of the beauty that surrounds us.

So, whether you're a seasoned collector or just starting your artistic journey, remember, size truly doesn't matter when it comes to finding happiness in art.
