About

Hi, I’m an artist, art installer and curator with over 20 years of experience. I handle professional picture hanging and art installation for homes, public institutions and private clients with museum-grade precision, and I’m happy to help! I’ve got an MFA from the Art Institute of Chicago, and have worked with institutions, design firms, and private clients across the US. I advise designers and collectors, and specialize in precise placement, secure installation and complex layouts. Whether it’s a full layout and installation for a home, or a small project elevated by precise placement and secure installation, it makes all the difference when it is done with thoughtful, experienced and attentive care. Warmly, Brendan

Such a great experience! Brendan worked on a few separate areas in my house. In my bedroom, I wanted a photo collage on the wall. I had laid out the photo frames on the floor to show him my idea of layout and within 30 seconds he moved and scooched and voila had the best arrangement of the frames. I swear he waved a magic wand or something it was so fast and perfect. He also took our existing stairwell photo arrangement that we wanted to add more photos to and again applied his magic made it perfect. The difference from our original kinda wonky, pictures askew to his perfect arrangement with the frames the same distance apart and very clearly going up the stairwell was remarkable. I spent a lot of time attempting to lay out frames. Don’t waste your time. He will work his wonders and have the best solution for your art. The difference between DIY and professionally hung frames is night and day.

Brendan is excellent to work with. He was very careful in my home and knowledgeable and experienced in what was required to complete my project. I have a very large, very heavy mirror, about 90 pounds ,that required custom hanging to insure the integrity of the wall as well as safety in my home.He knew exactry whato was needed. I wish I wish I had more projects for him. His pricing was excellent as well. I can't thank him enough.

I hired Brendan to hang a couple of pieces of art on the wall of our landing. He did an incredible job. He took the time to measure it correctly, we discussed placement, and as you can see, it looks amazing. I would absolutely hire Brendan again.
