Displaying artwork is more than just hanging something pretty on your wall. It is about creating a space that feels alive.
Original art is a transformative force that adds colour, emotion, and personal meaning to your home or office. It has the power to turn plain spaces into powerful ones, inspiring and motivating you every day.
Nicki Baker-Comelli and Jessica Baker-Vince are not just two Australian artists, but creators of bold, thought-provoking work that speaks directly to collectors and design lovers, forging a personal connection with each piece.
When displayed thoughtfully, their art becomes the focal point of any room, inviting you to be considerate and thoughtful in your display choices.
Choosing the Right Spot for Your Artwork
Before hanging your artwork, think about the space and its lighting. Bright, natural light highlights colours but can also cause fading.
Avoid placing delicate art in direct sunlight. Instead, choose soft-light spaces or add directional spotlights for maximum impact.
Always consider eye level. Hanging art too high or too low can affect how it is appreciated and seen.
Group small artworks together to create a gallery wall. Larger works deserve room to breathe and make a strong visual statement.
Nicki Baker-Comelli: Bold and Expressive
Nicki Baker-Comelli’s artwork is fun-loving, loud, and layered with emotion. It captures boldness, movement, and pop culture energy.
Her “Just Do It” collection draws inspiration from sports, sneakers, and nostalgic branding with strong lines and vibrant colour choices.
“The Pantry” collection brings domestic moments to life through playful compositions filled with delicious visual surprises and humour.
When displaying Nicki’s art, give it space. Her bold brushstrokes and vivid hues need room to stand out and breathe.
Try placing her work on a crisp white wall with minimal décor. Let the painting do all the talking.
Jessica Baker-Vince: Floral Abstraction with Urban Grit
Jessica Baker-Vince creates floral artworks that blend graffiti textures with painterly softness. Her pieces feel beautifully raw, modern and organic.
Her “Cartel Flowers” series features large abstract blooms layered with boldness and a fun art energy using a rich, expressive colour palette.
“Graffiti Flowers” mixes scrawled markings with petal forms, while “Street Flowers” brings gritty vibrance to gentle, expressive floral subjects.
Display Jessica’s work in spaces needing warmth and vitality. Her art lifts mood and adds energy to dining rooms and lounges.
Pair her artwork with warm-toned wood, natural fibres, and layered lighting to enhance its earthy, expressive beauty.
Tips for Hanging and Framing Artwork
Frames should match the art’s tone, not just your furniture. Nicki’s art suits bold black or natural frames for contrast.
Jessica’s florals can be framed in timber or floated in box frames to enhance brushwork and texture.
Use picture-hanging hooks for stability. Avoid hammering directly into plaster. For heavier pieces, use a stud finder or wall anchors.
A spirit level ensures straight hanging. Crooked art distracts from the work and makes the walls feel chaotic and cluttered.
Group artworks by artist, theme or tone. Keep spacing consistent for balance and a curated feel.
Mixing Artists and Media
Mixing Jessica Baker-Vince’s floral abstraction with Nicki Baker-Comelli’s pop-infused paintings creates interest and visual tension.
Their art works contrast and complement beautifully. One is soft and layered. The other is direct and punchy.
Place Nicki’s “Just Do It“ piece in a kid’s bedroom or home gym. It will energise their minds as they go to bed at night. Or bring inspiration while working out.
Use Jessica’s florals in used spaces like dining rooms or kitchens. Their gentleness invites calm and reflection.
Together, their art creates a dynamic, engaging environment filled with personality and visual richness.
Rotate Art Work for a Fresh Look
You do not need to buy new art every season. Rotate existing art work to keep your space feeling fresh.
Change the locations of pieces throughout your home. Something that lived in the bedroom might suit the hallway or kitchen.
Seasonal shifts in colour or mood can guide your display choices—lighter shades in summer, deeper tones in winter.
Nicki and Jessica’s collections are diverse. Swapping between works gives rooms new energy and updated personality.
Use the method of rotating art to experiment and discover unexpected combinations and placements in your home or office. This approach allows you to constantly refresh your space and keep it feeling new and exciting.
Supporting Australian Women Artists
Nicki Baker-Comelli and Jessica Baker-Vince represent strong voices in the contemporary Australian art scene. Their works are original and vibrant.
By collecting their art, you support Australian artists who challenge norms and create meaningful connections through visual storytelling.
Their art works are available framed and ready to hang. Each piece is professionally presented and arrives with a private art courier.
When buying directly from the Baker Collection website, freight is included for all original artwork deliveries within Australia.
Supporting local artists not only enriches your space, but it also enriches your community and creative culture.
Create a Story with Your Wall
Think of your wall as a visual storybook. Every piece of art work adds a sentence or emotion to your story.
Mix pieces from different periods or styles for interest. Create a timeline or an evolving narrative of your passions and tastes.
Display sketches beside completed paintings. Add sculptural wall hangings alongside framed pieces to play with depth and texture.
Nicki’s pop art pairs well with an Alessi vase or a snack jar. Jessica’s abstract florals suit ceramics, plant life and soft furnishings.
Be brave. Your space should reflect you. Let the walls show where you have been and where you dream to go.
Art in Unexpected Spaces
Do not limit art to living rooms. You can also transform hallways, kitchens, and laundry rooms with great art work.
A small Nicki Baker-Comelli piece in the laundry adds colour and motivation. Her playful work suits overlooked spaces needing life.
A framed Jessica Baker-Vince floral beside the bath turns routine into ritual. Art in these moments brings joy and presence.
Think vertically. Use narrow corners or narrow walls. Lean pieces on cabinetry, mantels or shelves to create non-traditional, relaxed displays.
Even the smallest corner can become a mini gallery with the correct lighting and placement.
Lighting Makes a Difference
Lighting plays a crucial role in showcasing your artwork. Direct sunlight, unless the pieces are UV protected, should be avoided. Indirect light not only enhances the colours but also preserves them over time.
Use adjustable downlights or gallery track lighting to spotlight featured pieces. This creates drama and focuses attention on chosen artworks.
Lamps and soft uplighting also add warmth and texture to rooms with hanging art. Lighting brings art to life after dark.
Avoid fluorescent bulbs. They distort colour and can damage paper and pigment over time.
For Nicki and Jessica’s pieces, warm lighting beautifully enhances depth, brush detail, and richness.
Personalise Your Art Journey
There are no rules when it comes to displaying art. Follow your instincts. Choose pieces that speak to your values and vision.
Nicki Baker-Comelli encourages collectors to embrace colour and culture. Her art work celebrates self-expression and social commentary.
Jessica Baker-Vince paints from her bold, fun energy and movement. Her floral pieces capture the emotional rhythm of everyday life.
Display their work proudly. Let it spark conversation, curiosity, and joy in your space.
By surrounding yourself with meaningful artwork, you claim your space as creative, expressive, and unique.
