Lighting for Art, Painting and Drawing

High Performance Lights for Artwork

We understand the significance of proper lighting for art, whether you're an artist or designer, we offer a wide range of artwork lighting to meet your needs. Our lights not only improve visibility but also protect your eyes from harmful blue light, ensuring a comfortable and safe experience.

Whether you are looking for a light for painting, sketching, drawing, or any other close work, the best lights for your hobby will simulate natural daylight as closely as possible. The Serious High Definition Light has a CRI of 99%, meaning colours are shown nearly as accurately as they would be in true daylight. Our lighting for art ensures that your creative endeavours are well-lit and visually accurate.

Accurate Colour Rendition

When it comes to creating art, accurate colour rendition is crucial. Our bespoke light engines produce a spectrum that closely resembles natural daylight, making our High Definition the ideal choice for painting, drawing, sketching, illustration or design work.

Enjoy working under the same light used to show off the artist's colour palette and brush strokes and trusted to bring out the fine detail in the Van Gogh Museum.

It is no accident that Serious Lights are relied upon by surgeons, forensic scientists, artists and opticians, among over 500,000 serious individuals in over 60 countries.

Nothing to lose…

At Serious Readers, we understand that everyone's eyesight is unique. That's why we offer a 30-day risk-free trial for our art lights. Test the Serious Light in your own home, and If for any reason you find the light unsuitable, we will collect the light at our cost (UK mainland only) and fully refund you.

However, 99% of people who decide to try a Serious Light end up keeping it. Thousands of Serious Light owners use their lights to help with artwork, painting, sketching, illustration or design work.

We particularly recommend the High Definition Light for any artwork as it projects a balanced natural bright light beam, replicating daylight as closely as possible with a 99% CRI.
