There are different ways to hang your canvas wall art. You can hang your paintings horizontally, vertically, offset in different heights, or in a row. What's important is that you hang paintings at eye level. It would be more difficult to appreciate artwork if you had to strain your neck to look up or bend down to see a picture clearly.
Some ways to hang your canvas are:

1) Hang two or more paintings at different levels. Hang one painting first and then hang the next one a few inches higher or lower. The best way to organize offset hanging is by laying the paintings on the floor so you can plan how to arrange the paintings like a puzzle.
2) Hang even-sized canvas pieces in similar themes, styles and colors in a vertical or horizontal row. Three to four paintings are good numbers to hang this way. They would look suitable in a hallway or corridor, above a long couch in the living room, a rectangular dining room, or above a queen or king sized bed.
3) Hang a few paintings diagonally along your staircase. An easy way to determine where to place your hooks or nails is by measuring from the floor up. So, if hang the first painting 5 feet from the floor of the step, do the same for the next step up or down. Hang at intervals of 3 to 4 steps along the stairway.
4) Hang several small paintings in a group to make up one big artwork. If you have 6 canvas pieces you can mount them in a group shaped like a square or rectangle. You can also hang them in an offset manner like a collage of various picture above your couch, along the hallway or staircase.
5) Hang similar themed paintings in one area. So, it you have a bunch of flower canvas wall art, hang them in one room in a row or in a group. If you have several small pieces of fruit paintings, hang them all in the kitchen instead of spreading them out all over the house.
6) You can also hang paintings creatively with ribbons. Attach color coordinated ribbons to each end (left and right) at the top part of your canvas. The ribbons should not overshadow your painting. Choose high quality ribbons that are simple and don't have any distracting patterns and designs. Knot the ends into a ribbon then hang on a nail on the wall.
Since there are different ways to arrange canvas wall art on your wall, there are different hanging kits that can help you achieve the task too. Some are self-leveling, other hanging devices let you adjust the height of your paintings by a few inches. These adjustable hanging kits are ideal for hanging a series of artwork in a row or offset art sets.
