I do put them together and they look more interesting that way. Each canvas is 24” X 36” which is relatively large and together they’re 6 feet wide by 3 feet tall. Add a few inches between them for spacing and they come out to a rather large painting. Size has as much impact on paintings as do all the other factors regarding their execution. And at least for me I prefer to use relatively large canvases since I started painting on them. But I’m glad I never tried doing murals! Areas that large are very limited!
