You don’t want your home to be just like everyone else’s, and you know individuality lies in the detail. So why not express your style and create a focal point with original art?
“Yeah right… easier said than done!”
may well be a thought crossing your mind about now…
Sourcing art for the walls involves a plethora of considerations, such as…
Sheesh! There are so many things to think about!
So when it comes to finding wall art worthy of a place in your home, and not merely giving you some visual clutter, you could be forgiven for thinking it is a bit tricky…. and leave the task for another day.
It is true – here at Visual Resource we offer custom art solutions for all sorts of projects. For us, working together with people on the selection of an image, then preparing it to the custom size required, we get excited about that. That said, we also completely understand… sometimes you may not want to put in that sort of effort, you may be looking for fewer decisions, less complexity, and well… just a more streamlined, easier method.
And here it is! VR Art Prints: an easy access wall art option available from the VR SHOP.
When visiting the VR SHOP, here is what you will find:
CAPTIVATING IMAGES
We don’t expect you to wade through hundreds of mediocre artworks in search of a few gems. Instead, we have curated a unique selection of amazing images. The editing has been done to save you time. Only exceptional artworks make it into the VR Art Prints range.

EXPERTLY PRODUCED, FRAME READY ARCHIVAL PHOTOGRAPHIC PRINTS
VR Art Prints are not mass-produced poster prints. Instead, each piece is individually printed to give a luminosity and quality only found in authentic photography. The difference when compared to low cost generic art is remarkable.
The size of the print has been thought about also. No decision to be made. The size is a generous 91cm wide x 61cm high.
REASONABLY PRICED
When you consider, VR Art Prints are the happy union of stunning creative images, and a superb photographic archival print – the asking price provides great value.

So if we both agree, nothing short of extraordinary deserves to be hung on your walls: there are two possible avenues to take.
Let’s say your artwork will be going into a kitchen for a feature splashback, or a large format wall mural, for example. Visual Resource will prepare your artwork to the exact size required, on a finish we recommend to best suit your project. We will even consult with you to help you reach a final image selection from the VR Collections.
VR happily provide a high level of service to deliver you a custom solution. In fact, this is the cornerstone of the Visual Resource offer and it will continue.
Over the years however, we have also come to recognise that sometimes your artwork requirements are simpler. You may not want (or need) to invest the time and energy a custom piece involves. And so, here is an alternative.

How
You are now one giant leap closer to adding incredible art into your home. It’s that easy!

We are surrounded, even bombarded with hundreds of images every day. We receive an abundance of visual stimulus from Facebook, TV and the Internet, even if we only see these visuals for a fleeting moment.
As a lovely contrast, it is calming, even restorative to slow things down and enjoy the physical experience of art. Imagine less volume of imagery, in place of something longer lasting and incredible.
Nothing compares to seeing something in person.
The impact of art on your wall is not to be overlooked. Authentic photographic artworks deliver so many things, including:
And by far, the most personal benefit is…
To get you in the mood for selecting a new piece of astounding wall art, let’s consider two possible options.
Do I go bold and create an eye-catching focal point?
Or…
Do I go with more subtle design and tones to compliment the rest of the colour scheme? To blend in and be a team player…
Here are a few tips for you to consider, when making the decision for you and your home.
GOING BOLD
Tip 1.
If you have mostly neutral furnishings, they provide a ‘blank canvas’ if you like…
Your choice of artwork can create a contrast to the interior, instead of trying to match what is there now.
This gives you a free rein, as you can be guided by the artwork that moves you, regardless of its style, shape or colour palette.
Tip 2.
Once you have found the artwork that moves you, then you can draw inspiration from the artwork for items like cushions or vases to reflect some colours from your art. These ‘accents’ will serve to tie the room together.
Repeating colours within the artwork (accents), increases the artworks impact in the room.
Tip 3.
There is no end to the possible visual subject matter of art. It could be for example, a stunning Melbourne street scene, busting with life, character and colour. Like the ‘Street Art’ photographic artwork seen above.
Alternatively, you may like to make a splash with an abstract photo art: rich in colour along with a sense of movement in the design. For example, ‘Natures Shape # 4’ seen below.

Then there is the second option…
BEING SUBTLE
Tip 1.
An alternative approach when selecting an artwork is to select a piece that matches or blends with your interior.
This involves selecting an artwork which combines colours, shapes, forms, and styles that are completely in unison with your interior.
This gives harmony where the artwork is a team player, rather than the star.
Tip 2.
Choices, choices! Don’t despair. There is no right or wrong when it comes to art. Having choice is not only inspiring – it is essential!
And for one last overarching tip, not specific to being bold or subtle…
As you look at art, you will know what you like. So trust yourself and go with your instincts. Your taste in art will be entirely personal, so why not choose something you love.
Art bought with your heart will never disappoint.

Feeling bombarded by images? Keep in mind… Nothing compares to seeing something in person. And the impact of art on your wall is not to be overlooked.
The warmth of the timber flooring and dining table reflect colour from the tree lined avenue photograph: just one of the elements making the choice of image for the splashback fit so perfectly within the home.
Of even greater fit and cohesion however, is the fact that the image has great significance to homeowner Poppy. As a photograph she captured, there are many things loved about the image. Poppy could visualise this photograph within the planned renovation.
The size of the kitchen splashback is an impressive 2m wide x 1.6m high.
When Poppy first brought her image file in for Michael to look at, the realization was, the size of the file was not going to be large enough to provide a quality print. The file was just too small for the task.
But on further reflection… knowing how integral the image was to the renovation and how important it was to Poppy, Toni and Michael came up with an idea to ‘tweak’ the file, so that a print for the sizable splashback area could be done, while still looking visually fantastic.
Many photographic enhancements were made to Poppy’s original image, including:
The original image, taken by Poppy is seen on the left. The final image complete with enhancements is seen on the right.
Without making the improvements to the supplied photograph, the end result would be have been disappointing for Poppy. Instead – this is what Poppy had to say about the experience and the new splash back:
We were very impressed with both Toni and Michael from Visual Resource. We wanted to use our own artwork for a splashback (which was not at an appropriate resolution for the size of the splashback that we wanted). However, Michael waved his magic over our artwork, removed all the blemishes and enhanced the image to produce a truly beautiful picture of the required size. Everyone’s first word when they see our splashback is “WOW!”
Apart from being skilled and creative, Toni and Michael were always a pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend Visual Resource to anyone wanting a great visual splashback from people who are hands-on and work calmly to get the best outcome.

VR Art Glass first featured in the kitchen. Delighted with the end result, homeowner Susie then looked for another area, where an artwork by Visual Resource could enhance the space. The basement bar & entertainment area provides family members a private retreat, where the addition of floor to ceiling sized photographic artwork, gives a welcome visual contrast to the sleek black surrounds of the bar.
The home is grand in scale, calling for an equally impressive and engaging artwork for the entertaining area.
Finish: VR Art Glass.

It can happen. If a company offers you an artwork, which is actually the work of another artist, (and that artist has not given permission), in order to resolve legal action, your provider may need to remove the artwork – replacing it with something else!
Doing your due diligence in the early stages of choosing your splashback provider is so important.
If you love an artwork, and really want that for your splashback – it’s important to know who created the artwork.
Here are a few tips on how to avoid the heartbreak and inconvenience a removal could cause.
Let’s say the artwork you are considering is photographic, or a combination ‘mash-up’ of photos; here are a few simple questions to ask:
Beyond the questions there is another significant way to spot a provider of the unethical variety.
Is the artwork being offered to you visible on the companies website?
Or, is the work hidden away in a ‘private gallery’ for example?
If there appears to be some secrecy surrounding the work, rather than public openness… that is cause for suspicion. Please beware. Ask yourself; if the company did create the artwork, or had the authority to sell another’s work, wouldn’t they want to present it for all to see, rather than hiding it, and being secretive?
If a ‘private gallery’ is offered, that is good cause for alarm bells to ring, for you to be suspicious, and to ask questions about the origins of the artwork.
You may well ask, “And why does that matter?”
Because, if your provider is of the unethical kind, they are not likely to have permission to use an artwork created by another artist. And that can become a problem for you.
“Why would that be a problem for me?“
If the chosen splash back provider does not have permission to reproduce the art of another artist – that is copyright infringement. The original artist has the exclusive rights to the work, and can demand the removal of a reproduction.
After investing a lot of time and effort to consider, then select the artwork for your splash back, only to discover the person selling to you was not the original creator of the work and does not have any authority to offer it to you… the time spent will have been wasted.
So if you fall in love with a particular artwork, it is worth finding out just a few simple things before committing to a provider – to help you avoid the heartbreak and inconvenience removal of an unlawfully reproduced work may cause.
“Are there any exceptions?“
Another scenario entirely is stock photography from an image library source. Let’s say the image you like is from Getty Images – you will be able to source that image yourself; reading and agreeing to the terms Getty have to license the use of the image. It’s pretty straightforward.
The final word
The risk we are pointing out in the ‘here today – gone tomorrow’ scenario is when a company is either passing off another’s work as their own, and/or they do not have permission from the original artist to use the work. It will create issues, and you deserve not to be inconvenienced by the potential consequences.
