Your bedroom is your personal retreat for rest and relaxation. The ideal art for this space will help you unwind in the evening and wake up every morning ready for the day. As this is one of those rooms in the house that is entirely yours, this is the place to showcase personal art, whether it be a specially commissioned painting of your favorite vacation spot or something more raw, like a nude figure from Zoe Lunar. Whatever the theme, soothing colors and muted compositions are key to building a space that promotes a good night’s sleep. Swatch abstracts with pops of color in pastel tones Anna F. McDonald’s And Mila Weis Paintings are prime examples. For fans of geometry and clean lines, artists like Liz Mares And Hikaru O Combine modernist style with muted colors and compositions.

The most common bedroom wall that needs art is the area above your headboard. For a large room, opt for a workspace that is two-thirds or more the width of your underlying bed. You could also consider diptychs, triptychs or a series of smaller works to put your stamp on this space. Even though artwork helps anchor the wall space above your bed, don’t forget to place something beautiful on the opposite wall so you can retreat to each day and wake up with your favorite artwork.
