Put your stamp on your practice through art

If your reception area or exam rooms could use some freshening up, an easy way to bring color-and personality-into those spaces is with custom artwork. Whether it be ultra-modern, eclectic or classic, paintings are a relatively inexpensive addition. You can even turn art into a community relations event: enlist adults and kids to make it, ask for photos, and more. Click through the pages that follow for more inspiration.
