This week our Free Art Friday is all about upgrading that dreary dorm room. Cement wall, bare linoleum flooring - a dorm room isn't just a space that doesn't feel like home, it can be an environment where you don't feel creative or inspired, which can make it really hard to study or make the most of college. But a few simple touches can change all of that.

The summer is winding down, and it's time to start thinking about heading back to school. While pens, paper, school books, and backpacks should definitely be on your list, don't forget to add the items that will bring some life to your new home away from home.  Creating a space that feels cozy and warm is also important to succeed in school!

For this beautiful gallery wall, we added a classic art touch with a Degas painting available for free download via the Met's Open Access Program. To complement this perfect work, we uploaded and printed to canvas to add texture and keep the print feeling like a true painting.  The deep frame also pops off the wall to add dimension to any gallery wall. 

You can download this fabulous print here.  Once you save the jpg to your desktop, head to the canvas shop and upload to any size to suit your space!  PLUS, canvas prints are 20% off for the Back To School Sale!  Use promo code SCHOOL20 at checkout! 

Now you just have to get ready to have the room that all your hallmates will want to study in!
