art + room: ABSTRACT is the ANSWER

Designer Michael Smith kills it every time. I am in love with this mix of abstract art, art nouveaux, gold and traditional. Artwork just adds that special touch of edgy-ness that really makes it real and not too stuffy. I am always so inspired when designers can achieve that approachability factor... Incredible mix, don't you think?
amazing console piece + sophisticated horse + stacks of books + gold sconces + abstract art =
domestic bliss
why I love abstract art.....

I really love this mix of colors, it makes a perfect abstract vintage art look...

The abstract brush strokes make me wanna start busting out the watercolors and make a weekend of it! Of course it would look nothing like any of the above but a little creative corner would be perfect to display my progression! That last shot is such a fantasy...bluesy and oh so soulful!

I really do love the art work behind the horse... so much movement. I love bold abstract art! I also love the last image, with the Yves Klien Blue color; it is delicious.
