A Family Art Gallery: Displaying Children’s Book-Inspired Artwork
When we are at our creative table we often get inspired by artwork and illustrations from picture books. We have a huge collection (here is a small sample). Since I was a child, I have wanted to create an art gallery in our house. This intention became a necessity as soon as Cam started attending kindergarten.
Ikea picture ledges are often used to display photos and books. But when I saw them during a recent Ikea visit, I knew they would be perfect for displaying art. We created an art gallery using all the frames we could find around the house. The art in this gallery can be swapped out.
The pieces on display were inspired by pictures books.
