Abstract art paintings can be seen as an odd thing-When I tell people I enjoy to paint, they generally ask back “What do you paint?” and I respond “everything”. Abstract art is a great way to express and provoke emotion, even if its “damn that’s cool”. The point is when a wall or a space is empty without abstract paintings art, the room lacks where it could possibly have character, not just as the room its self, but as better portrayal of who you are, or the purpose of the space/room. It’s  than a Britney spears poster or cheap Target decoration.

The other benefits to hanging unique abstract art is its possible effects on your mood and overall mental well being. Colors have been scientifically proven to have effects upon your mood. “Colors in the red area of the color spectrum are known as warm colors and include red, orange, and yellow. These warm colors evoke emotions ranging from feelings of warmth and comfort to feelings of anger and hostility. Colors on the blue side of the spectrum are known as cool colors and include blue, purple, and green. These colors are often described as calm, but can also call to mind feelings of sadness or indifference. ” (Kendra Cherry) If you take this into account, having specific art pieces throughout your home can affect your mood on a daily basis.

For example, I have calm colored pieces in my bedroom, keeping my room relaxing. My living room has bright, and very energetic pieces of work. As a result my bedroom is more relaxing and distinguished, and my living room is more energetic and full of life and character.
