In my last post, Turn that Horizontal Modern Abstract Art Painting Vertically for a New Look, I mentioned at the end that I would show you the opposite in this post. Turning vertical Art horizontally.

But you can only do this with non-representation, abstract art. And not all abstract paintings.

But try it and see if it works with your art.

Love playing around with the direction of a series of abstract art paintings.

(Clicking the red link of the name of the painting will take you to that painting on my website.)

Before: These 2 paintings, Connections on the left and Nucleii 2 on the right, are hung here the way I created them.

After: And in this shot they are hung horizontally. Each one is 24”W X 30” L hung vertically.

Nucleii2 is on the top and Connections is on the bottom.

After: Now each can be hung by themselves and work also. And hung each way with the blue section on the top or turned around with the blue on the bottom. Below is Connections by itself.

Let me show you a second series used horizontally instead of it’s intended direction.

Before: Here they are how they were created to hang, vertically. Going Places is on the left, Going from Place to Place on the right. They are both 20” L X 16” W when vertical.

After: And here they are hung in various ways. Going Places is the one with the big splotch of yellow, Going from Place to Place is the other one.

You don’t have to use all the paintings in a series however, you can use just one alone also.

I would really love to have your input. Do you like this idea? And have you tried it on your own Art?

Let me know your feelings about this. Everyone is different so it might not be something you like.
