  5. Step 1: Prepare Your Artwork and Tools The first step in hanging artwork correctly is to gather all the necessary tools and materials for the job. On hand, you will need a measuring tape, a pencil, a level, picture hooks or wires, and, of course, your artwork. Ensure your artwork is securely framed or mounted and ready to be displayed. ©Copyright by thegallerysystem.com

  6. Step 2: Determine the Placement Next, you need to determine the appropriate placement for your pieces. Consider the size of the wall, the height of the room, and the surrounding furniture or decor. Generally, as a rule of thumb, artwork should be hung at eye level, around 150 - 152 cm from the floor. However, if you have high ceilings or a large amount of wall space, you can experiment with different heights for a more dramatic effect. ©Copyright by thegallerysystem.com

  7. Step 3: Measure and Mark Using a measuring tape, measure the dimensions of your artwork, and then mark the preferred placement of the piece on the wall using a pencil. Make sure your markings are level and align with the overall aesthetic of the room. Picture hanging systems often have guidelines or markers on the rail, making this process even more convenient. ©Copyright by thegallerysystem.com
