Impressionist Landscape Painting: Contemporary Fine Art for Your Living Space

Bringing one of my original landscape paintings into your living space does more than just cover your empty wall. The right contemporary artwork sets an entire mood of a room, transforming it completely. My impressionist landscape art focuses on capturing the constantly changing light, the moving shadows and the colour and texture of a landscape, giving an impression rather than strict realism and creating a calm yet sophisticated home environment.

See how contemporary fine art can elevate your interior design space with a look at the inspiration behind my latest painting. As painting can be quite a statement as well as complementing your favourite pieces of furniture and decor.

The inspiration behind this landscape painting

My large stretched canvas acrylic landscape paintings are primarily impressionist although I frequently introduce the occasional abstract touch to enrich the composition. I use continual brushstrokes and layered paint to build up light, colour, shadow and texture, carefully evoking the feeling of the changing landscape.

That vast sense of space and the subtly shifting mood of the scenery as it changes through different times of day continually inspires me and reflects in my work.

I’m always a little apprehensive about actually saying my larger landscape paintings are actually finished so I often place the image in an interior setting so that it really helps me see that it’s truly complete.

Styling this large canvas painting in your living space

You can make this painting the room’s focal point by placing it above a sofa or mantlepiece or if you have a large blank wall you can introduce your favourite pieces of furniture alongside, like your comfiest armchair and floor lamp that adds to the ambiance. That way you bring your personality in to the room. Or you can start with a statement contemporary painting like this and build your new gallery wall around it as long as you give it enough space so it really fills the room and everyone can fully appreciate it.

Why not match your textiles to the canvas tones by choosing one accent colour so you can bring the room together whilst also picking out some favourite items complementary to the colour that you’ve chosen.

My one piece of advice would be that as it’s an original painting please keep it away from direct sunlight.
