Photography Artwork
Adding new artwork to your space can completely change the look and feel. A popular trend right now is using black and white nostalgic photography artwork.
This can be a rockstar icon like Prince, a superstar singer like Elvis Presley, or a model like Twiggy.
Personally I LOVE the Marilyn Monroe Saatchi Art newspaper prints which are so fun and super cool.
The beautiful thing about working with black and white photography artwork is that you can go neutral or add in any pop color.

This post is all about photography artwork.
What is photography artwork?
Photography wall art is a type of artwork created in line with the artist’s vision using a camera. This can be with the use of a traditional, digital, or phone camera.
It’s purpose is to tell a story, capture a moment, document, or be art. The vision will differ from one person to the next and is a highly personal form of artistic expression.
Why is photography considered a form of art?
Photography is considered a form of art because anything with an artistic intent behind it is considered fine art. It can be found in the form of abstract, portrait, or landscape photography.
Both museums and galleries display photography wall art. It can be found in the homes of those who have an appreciation for fine art.
