Thank you for choosing Jon Wendell Fine Art for your fine art photography. To ensure that you can enjoy your artwork to its fullest potential, we have provided these hanging instructions to assist you in properly displaying and maintaining your purchase.
- Selecting the Right Location
1.1 Lighting: Choose a location for your artwork that has suitable lighting conditions. Avoid placing the artwork in direct sunlight or areas with excessive UV exposure, as this can cause fading or damage over time.
1.2 Temperature and Humidity: It is important to select a location that maintains a stable temperature and humidity level. Extreme temperature fluctuations or high humidity can negatively impact the artwork and its longevity.
1.3 Wall Strength: Consider the weight of the artwork and ensure that the chosen wall can support it securely. If you are unsure about the wall's strength or ability to hold the artwork, consult a professional for assistance.
- Preparing the Wall
2.1 Clean the Wall: Before hanging your artwork, ensure that the wall surface is clean, free of dust, and smooth. This will help to maintain the integrity of the artwork and prevent any debris from affecting its appearance.
2.2 Wall Protection: If desired, consider using appropriate wall protection such as adhesive hooks or picture hanging strips. These can help prevent damage to the wall surface and provide additional stability for the artwork.
- Hanging the Artwork
3.1 Leveling: Use a level to ensure that the artwork is hung straight. This will help create a visually pleasing display and maintain the intended composition.
3.2 Hanging Hardware: Check the back of your artwork for any attached hanging hardware or instructions provided by Jon Wendell Fine Art. This may include D-rings, wire, or other recommended hanging mechanisms. Follow the provided instructions to securely attach the hanging hardware.
3.3 Mounting Options: Depending on the type of artwork and your preference, you can choose to hang it using nails, screws, or other appropriate hanging hardware. If you are unsure about the best method for your specific artwork, consult with a professional or experienced art installer.
- Maintenance and Care
4.1 Cleaning: To maintain the appearance of your artwork, gently dust it with a clean, soft cloth or use a soft brush to remove any surface debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that may damage the artwork's surface.
4.2 Handling: When handling the artwork, always ensure your hands are clean and dry. Avoid touching the front surface of the artwork directly to prevent fingerprints or smudges.
