Print Buying Guide
Choosing the Right Nature and Wildlife Art for Your Space
Bring nature into your home with confidence and clarity.
Purchasing fine art photography should be as exciting and inspiring as the image itself. Whether you're buying your first wildlife print or building a personal gallery, this guide will help you choose the right size, material, and display style to best showcase your favorite piece from Dave Miller.
Choose the Right Size for Your Space
Getting the proportions right makes all the difference. Use these quick tips to decide:
Above Furniture
Recommended size: 30x40" or larger
Choose landscape orientation for horizontal spaces
Visual Tip: The print should span about ⅔ the width of the furniture below it
Gallery Wall or Multi-Print Display
Recommended size: 16x20" or 20x30"
Group 3–5 prints with similar tones, themes, or framing
Visual Tip: Use consistent spacing and align edges for balance
Small Spaces
(Bathrooms, Entryways, Nooks)
Recommended size: 12x18" or smaller
Perfect for vertical shots or intimate wildlife portraits
Visual Tip: Hang at eye level and consider a simple matte frame
Select the Right Print Material
Each print material has its own feel, finish, and best use. Here’s a breakdown of your options:
Canvas
Look & Feel: Soft, painterly texture with subtle depth
Best For: Cozy or rustic spaces (e.g., bedrooms, mountain homes)
Framing: Gallery-wrapped, ready to hang
Visual Tip: Works well with nature scenes like forests, water, or wide landscapes
Metal
Look & Feel: Sleek, modern, ultra-sharp with rich color depth
Best For: Contemporary homes, offices, minimalistic décor
Framing: Float-mounted or edge-framed
Visual Tip: Great for animals with detail (like owls, wolves) or bold skies and contrasts
Acrylic
Look & Feel: Polished, high-gloss, museum-quality finish
Best For: High-impact visuals or statement pieces in modern interiors
Framing: Mounts directly on wall or with standoff hardware
Visual Tip: Makes vivid colors pop—ideal for auroras, sunsets, wildlife in action
Framed Fine Art Paper
Look & Feel: Elegant, traditional with fine texture and archival longevity
Best For: Classic interiors, galleries, gift-giving
Framing: Choose wood, black, or white frames with optional matting
Visual Tip: Best for intimate wildlife portraits or black-and-white imagery

Still Not Sure? Ask These Questions:
Is this space formal or relaxed? → Choose framing and material to match.
Do I want the image to pop or blend in? → Metal/acrylic for bold, canvas/paper for soft.
What’s my lighting like? → Acrylic and metal shine in bright rooms; matte works best in softer light.
