Wall art mockup generator
See your artwork on a gallery wall.
detailshots is a free wall art mockup generator built for artists, dealers, and studios. Upload the photo of your painting, tell us how big it really is, and we compose it on a museum-style wall — at true scale, in the frame you choose.
How it works
- 1. Upload. Drop in a sharp, evenly-lit photograph of the artwork cropped to its edges. JPEG or PNG.
- 2. Size it. Enter the real width and height in centimeters or inches. This is what makes the mockup honest — a 30 × 40 cm study reads small, a 180 × 240 cm canvas reads monumental.
- 3. Frame it. Choose dark walnut, light oak, thin black, or a color frame.
- 4. Render. Export to 1:1 for Instagram, 4:5 for feed portraits, 16:9 for web, or 9:16 for stories and reels.
Why real dimensions matter
Most free mockup tools scale your artwork to fill the frame. The result looks fine as a thumbnail but lies to the viewer — a small drawing appears to fill a wall, a large canvas looks like a postcard. detailshots renders your piece at its actual size, next to a doorway and skirting board that anchor scale. Collectors and gallery clients read scale first and image second.
Made for
- Etsy sellers — listing photos that convert because the buyer can see the piece in a real room.
- Independent artists — Instagram posts, portfolio grids, submission packets.
- Galleries & dealers — client previews and press images without a full install shoot.
- Print sellers — show framed print sizes side by side.
