Frequently Asked Questions
How is Mesa & Sage art designed?

Designed by our talented team in Melbourne using digital tools. Mesa & Sage is our house brand, so the brand name is the byline on the art you order. Each piece is a print, with a painted look built into the design.

What kind of print will I receive?

You receive a print, made from a digital file in the painted look you see. Each piece prints as a giclée on paper or onto canvas. Every brush mark belongs to the artwork, rather than to a hand holding a brush. The painted look lives in the file.

Where will these pieces look good?

Your sofa wall takes a pair of 18 x 24 in canvases nicely. Over a bed, one 24 x 36 in canvas does the job. On a mantel or shelf, you can lean an 8 x 10 in and an 11 x 14 in framed print together with no mat.

Those arrangements come from our room pictures, and they are suggestions rather than rules. A rough guide many people use: the art runs to roughly two thirds of the width of the sofa or bed below it. Measure first.

What sizes can I choose?

You can choose from the sizes listed on each product page. Those are the shapes the artwork fills cleanly, as an art print, a framed print or a canvas.

For your own image, upload a photo to our Canvas Prints or Framed Prints product rather than picking a Mesa & Sage design.

Desert, mesa and sagebrush, with no landmark


Mesa & Sage western wall art starts with a mood, not a map. Scenes come from red rock at sunset, desert, cactus, sagebrush and open range, all in a southwestern palette. A painted look holds them together, so the American West reads clearly across a room.


Each scene is its own view, with no real landmark to match, so it hangs anywhere without asking you to recognize the place. It sits easily beside other subjects in the wall art collection.


From a design file to a finished print


Every piece starts life as a digital design and goes straight to print, with the painted look worked into the artwork. Paper versions are archival giclée on 200gsm matte stock. Canvas runs 400gsm on a stretcher about 1.5 in deep, mirrored at the edges so the picture stays on the front.


Art prints come unframed. Framed prints arrive ready to hang, hook fitted, in a slim wood frame with an oak look, black or white. Clear acrylic replaces glass, and a white mat is optional. Canvas ships without hanging hardware.


Pairs for big walls


Most designs come as a pair, and some as a set of 3, so a big wall fills quickly. Our room pictures show a pair of 18 x 24 in canvases over a sofa. A single 24 x 36 in canvas hangs over a bed. On a mantel, an 8 x 10 in and an 11 x 14 in framed print lean together, no mat.


Sizing comes down to judgment. A widely used ratio puts the art at roughly two thirds the width of the piece beneath it, so measure before you order. If a run of desert scenes starts to feel flat, Canoe & Crest prints and national park designs bring in a second subject.
