Hotel/Resort Art
Lillies - VanArsdale
By Janet Van Arsdale
Planning the art for hotels and resorts is as much fun as it is challenging.  Most hospitality jobs have themes and specific needs. It is a challenge to find art that is unique, yet inexpensive for the rooms.  In fact, we have recognized that it is so difficult, we have started our own line of resources to meet your needs.
 
The art most commonly chosen for hotels is photography.  Images can be produced in true color, black and white, or sepia, or they can be color embellished or hand colored.  We also have the ability to use special "painterly effects" (e.g. oil on canvas or watercolor)on photography, which can change the overall "feel" of the art, depending on its intended setting. 
We have the ability to do everything in house.  We match colors and themes, and choose appropriate frames which come within budget constraints.  It is very important that the art in the rooms reflects the image of the hotel.  We have designed the art for hotels across the United States.  We have sources from all over the world to enhance the feelings of comfort and uniqueness that can be communicated through art.  Because of our vast database, we can also supply public art, including monumental or commissioned sculpture, as well as fabricated works of art based on the designer's ideas.
We have been in business since 1971, and therefore, we have encountered almost every challenge in the art design world, which we have dealt with successfully.  We are looking forward to being part of your team and offering you solutions to all your art needs.
