Example 1 has a beautiful print of an original drawing in oil pastels, done by Rasika, called "Apple Blossoms".(starting at $50.00) This colorful addition of flowers brings an earthy tone to the room and is warm and welcoming. This time the picture is framed in a dark wooden frame. This helps to bring out the bright colors of the image and provides a strong contrast to the other elements.
Example 2 has an original piece of art done by Katrel, titled "Golden Saraph"($225.00) centered above the dining room table. This is a more traditional and sophisticated look, having the art match the table's adornments. It suggests a more proper dining style and has a more formal feel to it. The frame and mats provide just a little contrast. Enough to bring out the gold in the artwork. Great for entertaining a group of high-class individuals.
Example 3 the wall is adorned with an unframed original piece of art, by Okcaha, titled "Cherry 3D".($195.00) This is a fun piece for a dining room, as it is food in the painting. Brings a casual feel to the dining room and makes it very comfortable for any meal. Still classy and a, not very expensive, way to jazz up your dining room. The lack of a frame and bold color of the image is what gives it the relaxed ambiance.
