The finished piece
Matte art paper, held in solid wood. The 170 gsm uncoated paper sits between two magnetic rails, with no glass and no visual bulk.
Blue Hour Shore belongs to the interval after daylight has changed and before night has fully formed. It extends an hour that always feels too brief.
With a wooden hanger, the open presentation allows water and horizon to continue beyond the image.

• Paper: low-reflection matte finish, 170 gsm.
• Hanger: wood that keeps the artwork open without a surrounding frame.

Three checks that get it right
- Eye level. Hang the center of the artwork 57 to 60 inches from the floor.
- Furniture width. Above a sofa, bed, or console, artwork spanning about two-thirds of the furniture width feels balanced.
- Spacing. Leave 6 to 10 inches between the top of the furniture and the bottom of the frame.

Studio Notes
Art for lived-in rooms.
The Light Stays reviews each work before it enters the collection. We check how its composition and color hold at every offered size.
01
Classic Matte Paper
The matte surface preserves fine tonal and textural detail.
02
Considered at Room Scale
Each composition is reviewed from across the room and at close viewing distance.
03
Everything you see is in the image.
Nothing rises off the surface. Any relief, texture, or brushwork belongs to the artwork, not to the surface you touch.
A Closer Look
Look closer at the paper and build.
Three views show how the paper reads up close, how the hanger holds the artwork, and how the finished piece sits in the room.

Pieces that hang well together
Chosen from the same collection, in the same format, so the wall reads as one piece.
Golden Sea Mist lets light find its own route across the water. It softens distance without reducing its scale.

Blue Hour Field finds openness just as the light recedes. Its depth can make a room feel larger rather than darker.

Golden Night is about the warmth left over after the light has gone. Rust and olive dissolve into the pale ground without ever fully going out.

For a gallery wall, keep the same size and hanger across the pieces and leave 2 to 4 inches between them.
Measure the open width of the wall and choose artwork at roughly two-thirds of that width. Above a sofa, bed, or console, use the furniture width as your reference. Our size guide leads with inches and keeps the exact metric dimensions beside them.
Very close. Every artwork is color-checked against calibrated profiles before it leaves. Screens can shift brightness and tone slightly; the classic matte paper gives the artwork a softer, more natural finish.
Two slim magnetic wood rails hold the paper at the top and bottom. The hanging cord is included, and the artwork can be changed without tools or damage to its edges.
