Painting or photograph on the wall.
Custom white balance to get the most out of existing light. Reposition light as necessary to evenly light the entire piece.
Camera on tripod with a level to ensure your sensor is parallel to the piece on the wall. You might even want to take a small torpedo level to check the actual level of the piece and match it on tripod.
Get as much of the frame filled as you can with the piece to avoid cropping later.
Hope that helps...
