Susan M. has been buying my paintings for several years now. She began with eBay and moved on to dailypaintworks. We have exchanged emails, and I consider her a friend. She graciously allowed me to share some of her display ideas.

Recently she sent me some photos of how she displays the paintings, and I fell in love with her style. Since they are small, I think they look better as a group rather than all by their lonesome. The overlapping of the paintings provides unity--they are all landscapes and they all have a similar color palettes. Some are framed and some are not, and that's OK! It all adds up to a unified display with enough differences to keep it interesting.
This second photo shows only one painting, along with other collectibles. (This is a beach house.) Now why does this work so well when I just said to display small paintings in groups? OK--this works because it is a small painting in a small space. It's all about scale. Never put a small painting on a large wall, large table, etc....it will make you unhappy every time you look at it!
Thank you, Susan. I know my readers will like these display ideas.
