Uplifting Home Decor: When Color Smiles Abstract Art

I’m excited to introduce my newest 8×8 abstract painting, “When Color Smiles,” a piece that celebrates the simple joy and energy that colorful abstract art can bring into a space.

From the very first layers, this painting felt bright and expressive. I worked intuitively, allowing vibrant colors to move freely across the canvas, blending softness with bold moments. The result is an original modern abstract painting that feels playful, uplifting, and full of life — like color itself is sharing a happy moment.

One of the things I love most about creating small abstract paintings is how much personality they can hold. Even at 8×8 inches, this piece carries movement and emotion. The layered colors create depth and visual interest, inviting you to pause and explore the details. Every angle reveals something a little different — a gentle transition, a pop of brightness, or a subtle rhythm in the brushwork.

Abstract art speaks in feeling rather than words, and “When Color Smiles” is all about warmth, optimism, and creative freedom. Whether displayed on a shelf, gallery wall, or cozy corner, this colorful abstract painting is meant to bring a lighthearted energy into its surroundings.

Creating this piece reminded me how powerful color can be — not just visually, but emotionally. Sometimes a painting doesn’t need a story or explanation. Sometimes it simply exists to lift the spirit.

Stop by my Etsy Shop if you’d like to see more details about this uplifting piece.

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

New Art Releases: Moments of Renewal and Echoes of Joy

These past two weeks have been a whirlwind, but I survived! 🎉

Long story short—my computer crashed, and I was nearly in tears thinking I’d lost all of my work and photos. 😢 Thankfully, everything was recovered, and I now have a brand-new computer—yay! The downside? It came with all-new software, including a different version of Windows and my photo-editing program, so there’s definitely a learning curve. But I’ll get there😅

While my computer was down, I still managed to get some work done from my phone (which was not easy on that tiny screen!). I did, however, manage to list two new pieces in my Etsy shop:

🎨 Moments of Renewal – A 5×5-inch abstract painting that glows with depth and movement. Layers of luminous color and expressive brushwork create a radiant composition that feels alive—evoking both serenity and inspiration.

🎨 Echoes of Joy – A vibrant 4×12-inch modern abstract that bursts with rhythm and harmony. Energetic strokes and shifting layers of color capture a sense of celebration and motion, like joyful echoes reverberating through light and space.

✨ Both of these one-of-a-kind abstracts make a bold statement as wall art or as a shelf accent in your home, office, or creative space. Their vivid hues and dynamic energy invite reflection, spark conversation, and add a touch of contemporary elegance wherever they’re displayed.

Stop by my Flowing Waters Art Shop on Etsy to take a closer look!

Thanks so much for stopping by—wishing you a truly wonderful rest of your week! 😊

  • Drift and Bloom – Original
  • Drift and Bloom – Giclee Print

I love to lose myself in my art while I paint. Each brushstroke I add puts a little piece of myself into the artwork — a thought, a feeling, or simply a moment of quiet joy. Over time, those moments come together to form something new and alive. That’s exactly how Drift and Bloom came to be.

This 8×8 inch original painting on wood is a celebration of color, flow, and modern elegance. Layers of turquoise blue, playful pink, soft white, warm brown, and shimmering touches of gold drift together in a soothing, uplifting dance. The natural wood panel adds depth and texture, enhancing the luminous energy that makes this piece feel like it’s gently moving.

Because this painting has such a peaceful yet vibrant spirit, I’m excited to share that Drift and Bloom is now also available as a fine art Giclée print. Each print is professionally produced on premium 310g archival paper, ensuring the colors stay true and radiant for years to come.

Whether you’re drawn to the tactile richness of the original wood painting, or prefer the versatility of a print that brings its joyful calm into any room, Drift and Bloom adds a bright, modern touch to your space.

✨ Both the 8×8 original and Giclée prints are now available in my Flowing Waters Art Shop on Etsy — perfect for collectors, color lovers, or anyone who loves art that radiates harmony and light.

And for those who enjoy my photography as well — I’m in the process of adding new 11×14 inch print sizes to all my photo listings, so you can enjoy larger, statement-worthy versions of your favorite images. Stay tuned for updates as new sizes become available!

Thank you for taking a moment to share in this burst of color and creativity with me — wishing you a bright and joyful day! 😊
