1. Your office walls are absolutely desolate or have sparse wall decor.
2. The artwork that is in your office is from in a decade that is not this one. (Classic reprints such as a Van Gogh aren’t included in this).
3. You catch your clients doing one of these faces
4. You have cheesy motivational posters and your employees secretly hate them. Motivational posters do nothing to actually motivate people or get a company growth. A company with a positive culture and strong core management values that actually entice employees to want to do their best will though.
5. You, your employees, and staff are bored mentally. As the old saying goes, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” There is no motivation or spark of creative energy when you are in the space. This one employee was so bored with the blank walls in his work environment he decided to do something about it – with his boss’s permission of course.
6. Your company mission statement is nowhere to be found. With a mission statement proudly mounted on your office walls, you can communicate to your team the qualities that mean most to your organization like fairness, diversity, respect for ideas and creativity, training, tools, empowerment, and more. These are themes that matter and resonate with your staff.

Considering selling your work to an art consultant firm? You should!
Some artists are great at promoting themselves, finding buyers, and generating attention to their careers. Hats off to them. For many other artists, however, having a middleman speak on behalf of their work is vital to their careers.
Art consulting firms are always seeking art for their clients in a range of mediums such as paintings, works on paper, sculpture, ceramics, glass, textiles/tapestries/wall hangings, photography, mixed media, new media, and more. Firms such as Corporate Artworks help the art community by helping local, national, or even international artists find commissioned work.
While galleries are highly visible on many street corners so that one can just walk into them, few artists know enough about art consultants to either find them or know how to effectively work with them.
Unlike galleries, art consultants are not “open to the public.” They don’t display art, and they don’t advertise to the general public. So why should you want to work with them?
Well, they offer several distinct advantages—one of which is that they don’t display art to the public. When you work with art consultants, you don’t need to spend your hard-earned money on framing your art then shipping it across the country just to see if someone may or may not eventually buy it.
One way to make deals in the corporate art world is by hiring an art consultant. Art consultants work by connecting collectors, corporations, and artists to find the right piece for a project.
As an artist, working with an art consultant will also help when it comes to ironing out the details of the contract, such as payment, transportation, installation, insurance, and other issues that may come up during the transaction.

Art encompasses a wide variety of media and affects everyone who sees it in one way or another. Business owners are beginning to understand that displaying office artwork does more than making the office more aesthetically pleasing or impress visitors; it can actually increase employee efficiency, productivity, and creativity.
Office artwork
The following are some of the merits of displaying artwork in the office.
Art inspires and unlocks creative potential. When people are faced with an impressive painting or photograph, they often feel inspired by the work. This is why motivational posters often include photographs of magnificent sunsets, towering trees, and mountains, or feats of athleticism. The inspiration that one feels upon looking at art unlocks creative potential helping to generate innovative ideas. Innovative ideas, in turn, lead to new business practices and promotional campaigns, which ultimately create economic growth
Office artwork helps connect with clients. Many companies rely on specific types of people or socioeconomic groups for the majority of their business. Lawyers, for example, have specialized fields that cater to specific demographics: laborers, unhappy couples, and corporate management. By hanging photographs in the office or waiting area, they can make a client feel comfortable and even connect with them on an emotional level. A lawyer specializing in family law may have paintings or photographs of healthy families and happy children, for example.
Cruise lines offer an example of major businesses aligning their brands with artwork to offer better customer experiences.
Popular cruise line Royal Caribbean International has partnered with Park West Gallery to fill its ships with artwork from thousands of unique artists, regularly conducting art auctions and displaying the artwork throughout the ships in the fleet.
Customer feedback has shown that cruise guests find pleasure and fun is not only the artwork but the unique experience of the auctions themselves, according to published letters from customers.
Office artwork affects the atmosphere of a room. Romantic artwork with pastoral scenes of nature tends to evoke feelings of peace or content in most viewers. A company that hangs photographs and paintings of peaceful, natural settings will help their employees to feel happy and content, and it will create a general sense of calm in the office. Similarly, a piece of artwork can add personality to a space in or around the office, making it a gathering place for employees during breaks.
Office artwork improves employee experiences. One survey of employees working in offices with artwork showed that 83 percent of the employees felt that artwork was important in the work environment. Of those employees, 73 percent also said that their perceptions of their workplace and their work experiences would change if the art were removed. By stimulating ideas, promoting feelings of calm, and giving employees something beautiful to look at where they spend the majority of their day, art can truly make a huge difference in employee satisfaction, productivity, and wellbeing.
Art can be used to promote your brand. There are subtle ways to increase your brand’s importance, credibility, and authority in the eyes of customers. Images of your company throughout the years, for example, often evoke a slight feeling of nostalgia in viewers, as well as emphasize the longevity of your company.
As business competition continues to heat up across nearly all markets, business owners and managers are looking for new ways to gain competitive advantages.
While artwork is nothing new, its positive effects on employee productivity, satisfaction, and morale can’t be ignored.
Coupled with the strategic branding opportunities it presents, artwork is poised to appear online items of company budgets in 2015 and beyond – and for good reason.
