Professional decorators offer many great suggestions when determining how to arrange art on the walls of your home or office. Spacing, proportion and placement are just a few of the tricks of the trade.
For example, if you have an even number of art pieces (2, 4, 6, etc.) and you want them to work together as an arrangement, place them pretty close together. Odd number groupings (like three verticals) look nice together if they're spaced evenly apart.

For symmetrical groupings, create a grouping that's symmetrical if the frames, subject or style are similar. This will help create balance. Create an asymmetrical grouping if the frames, subject or style are different.
Many people group art in terms of collections- fine art photos go in one place, botanical prints in another location; other collectibles like kitsch velvet paintings or religious artwork go separately.
All these approaches work. Just try to find a balance in each group. And don't be afraid to mix things up and create an eclectic arrangement. You can tie them together by a background wall color.
If you have a lot of art in your home, try to make sure that there's a wall or small area in the room that's fairly art-free so there is some visual breathing space. Too much art can start looking like clutter if there's no system to the way it's arranged. Your eye will have nowhere to go.
Keep the artwork in proportion to the furniture. A tiny picture over an oversized credenza can make the art look lost. An oversized artwork over a small loveseat can overpower the seating. But rules are meant to be broken. If you've got a good eye, play around with things a little. You might create a wonderful unexpected relationship between the furnishings and the art that will surprise and delight everyone.
Another interesting way to display your art is with an art shelf. You can lean the art on the shelves or hang a few pieces and have the others lean against a wall. Fine art photography is particularly beautiful when presented this way. You can also mix vases, sculpture and other objects with the art for a nice visual arrangement. The great advantage of displaying art this way is that you can change the order when it pleases you without messing up the walls.
