One Abstract Painting Four Ways
Read on to see my original painting, Luna II, styled for four different interiors.
How to style one painting four different ways.
You know the feeling. When you're scrolling through an online gallery of paintings, and you see it: THE painting. Your heart jumps. A smile warms your face. Your pulse quickens. You just know that this is the one. But then you look around where you're sitting and think, "How the heck is that gonna fit in with my decor style?" Abstract paintings can be tricky to match with your decor vibe sometimes, but read on and see an example of how with the right accessories the painting that stole your heart can fit in PERFECTLY with your interior design style.
NATURAL STYLE HOME
Whether Joanna Gaines is your go-to gal, or you subscribe to a more coastal vibe, it might be a push to see how a bright and colorful abstract like Luna II could truly fit in with your decor. However! When you find the one, you don't have to sacrifice--in the words of Tim Gun:
Make it work. Here are my accessory picks for a more natural style interior decor to pair with my painting, Luna II.
ECLECTIC STYLE HOME
Some of us have a hard time narrowing down our interior decor to just ONE adjective. One of my guiding principles in styling my own home is William Morris's quote, "Have nothing in your home that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful." We can also say that I also find many different kinds of things to be beautiful. If you are like me with metallic accents here to fuzzy pillows there, polka dot dishes, and rose gold pottery, check out Luna II in this eclectic vibe.
GLAM STYLE HOME.
Glitz and glitter and glam. Oh, my. If your interior decor is a little on the fancier side of things, then this section is for you. My recommendation is to style Luna II in the striking pewter or silver frame for maximimum effect. Also, see my picks below for the perfect glamorous accessories for your fashionable abode.
BOHO STYLE HOME.
All the good vibes of Luna II shine in a bohemian setting. It's a great statement piece to mix in with natural fibres and flowy coziness. Start with a wood frame like the basswood and then add in your favorite accessories from my picks below. (No apologies for going heavy on the Anthropology. It's my personal fave.)
Flor Bedding | Boho Eye Candle | Feminist Blanket | Wooden Bead Chandelier | Velvet Rose Bedding | Blue Swing Chair | Blue Fringe Sheet Set | Terracotta Planter | Hanging Star Light | Pink Tribal Pillow | Cotton Macrame Hanger | Tuftet Rug
Luna II is one of my favorite paintings of all time. It was a hot summer Texas day, and I had just spent the week before doing collage work to get inspiration. You can see Luna II's collage counterpart to see what inspired her colors and movement.
I hope you enjoyed my decor picks! If you find yourself in a bind with a painting and wondering if it will fit your room, feel free to shoot me an email and I would love to help you style it. Or, if your go-to style wasn't covered here, let me know so that next time I can help you accessorize. Cheers to making it work!
