We’re big fans of creative art ideas for walls. After all, wall after wall of framed art or canvases can get a bit boring! We especially enjoy incorporating a fun or interesting texture to a wall. We’ve seen lots of great ideas over the years and bring you another with today's artist...
Local artist Jennifer Prichard creates porcelain installations for commercial and luxury hospitality locations. Using the flexibility of the material and combining it with her natural talent, Prichard’s art transforms spaces more than a canvas painting ever could. She also designs good-looking tiles, too. While she's not new to the design scene, we love her work so much we feel she warrants another mention.
Okay, so maybe we can’t all afford to install handmade, local artist-created porcelain art installations that cover an entire wall, but it’s certainly a lovely (and rather inspiring) idea. Porcelain isn’t the only material available in creating awesome textural installations on a wall. We’ve seen great wall compositions made out of glass, mixed tapes, doilies and even toy cars. Here are some past Apartment Therapy posts that might get your texture ideas flowing:
Have you come up with a fun way to create a texture on your wall using interesting objects? How do you create interest with your hanging collections in your spaces? Share your ideas to inspire others!

We use these white, padded round circle-thingies to protect our walls from the doorknobs. They just stick on the wall. If one painted a wall a good color, then made a grid or pattern with these white round circle-thingies (I don't know what they are called), that could be pretty cool. Hmm...

The first one looks like candy buttons - you know, those sugary dots on paper. It's kind of cute.

I was thinking the same thing about the green display looking like candy dots. The next design looks like barnacles that need to be scraped off a ship's hull.
