ARTWORK IDEA – Rotate Your Artwork Like A Gallery Does – Really!

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

ARTWORK IDEA FROM NESTOR TORO

Many of my collectors are regulars and purchase a new work every few months. So have summer homes that also need artwork. Others simply rotate the artwork on their walls to keep them looking fresh which is a GREAT IDEA! So many are afraid of collecting art because they fear they do not have the wall space for it. Rotating artwork (just like art galleries and museums do) – Imagine if they have the same works each time you visited.

Why not do the same thing with your home? Just keep it in mind. I have so many collectors who say they see new works but just don’t know where to hang it – rotate your artwork! That is what all collectors do – it’s what I do! There is finite wall space (even in the largest home) so rotating your artwork gives the space a whole new look and feel. Give it a try and I think you will find out that you love it!

Remember that corner or small room with the same painting for years – well – just imagine have a few works of perhaps 20 x 16 inches (really a great size for many spaces) and changing the artwork in that space every few months – it will change the entire “feel” and “energy” of the room! Try it! Check out the vast selection of affordable 20 x 16 inch works I have available right now!

So with that in mind why not head over to the shop to see what’s new!

Saatchi Art – “New This Week” – July 8th 2019

/0 Comments/in , , , , , /by

It is always exciting to be acknowledged for an achievement and no more so than for an artist like myself. The art world is a very competitive place and the internet has made that competition explode! It is now possible for every artist on the planet to have a presence online. Even though this has allowed more and more artist’s work to be shown it has always created an environment of such sheer volume that is difficult to find good art with literally millions of works listed online!

“This is why once again I am pleased, thrilled and honored to have one of my works chosen to grace the FRONT COVER of the world’s largest and online gallery of fine art Saatchi Art!”

I really love starting a new series because it allows me to put fresh ideas onto the canvas. I typically will start out with a new color palette and then see where it takes me.

Large Commission Finished

/1 Comment/in , , , , , , , /by

Many think that commissioned artworks are only for the super rich. While they do cost more than finished artworks, they are often the best (and only) way to get just the exact work you need for a specific space. I have recently completed a large 89″ x 66″ work for a wonderful couple who love my style but needed a work for a specific location. If you would to read about it and watch the process I have a page with photos and video of the entire process.

Click here to be taken to that page and watch for yourself as artist Nestor Toro transforms a large custom made canvas to an amazing finished work of art the collector will enjoy for the rest of their lives! CLICK HERE
