Elevate your space with our Animal Nursery Wall Art Canvas Art

Gentle deer, shaggy highland cows, butterflies and little songbirds fill this collection of nursery animal wall art, each piece painted by our artists and printed on canvas. Palettes run from woodland greens and watercolor whites to warm orange, sunny yellow and calm blue, so you can match a soft, neutral room or add a cheerful pop of color. Every piece comes in seven sizes, from 12x18 to 40x60 inches, framed in black, white or natural wood, or unframed.

Deer in Woodland Greens

For a calm, forest-inspired nursery, start with Deer Herd at River’s Edge, an impressionist scene in green on a vertical canvas. Soft Watercolor Deer pairs green with white in a gentle watercolor style, while Rustic Cabin Deer Scene brings gold and green to a horizontal format that suits the wall above a dresser. For something bolder, Expressive Deer Sketch mixes blue and yellow in a playful pop, psychedelic style.

Highland Cows in Warm Orange and Blue

Highland cows add a cozy, farmhouse feel to a little one’s room. Highland Cow by the Lake and Highland Cow Reflections both play orange against blue, the first in an impressionist style and the second in an expressive, painterly one. Iconic Highland Cow in Snow keeps things light with white and orange, and Highland Cow in Mist leans into green and sage green for a quieter, earthy look.

Butterflies and Little Birds

Delicate wings make a sweet choice for a soft, airy nursery. Affectionate Butterfly Kiss glows in pink and orange, Bright Yellow Butterfly pairs white and yellow in watercolor, and Exquisite Butterfly Sculpture offers an all-white watercolor piece on a horizontal canvas. For blue-toned rooms, Meditative Mallard Moment and Vintage Sparrow Silhouette keep the palette calm, while Calm Canary Chirp adds a touch of yellow to its blue abstract style.

Tips for Choosing and Hanging Nursery Art

  • Pick one or two colors from the bedding or rug and choose pieces that repeat them.
  • Hang art securely on the wall rather than leaning it on a shelf above the crib.
  • Group two or three vertical pieces of the same animal for a gallery look on a narrow wall.

What colors pair well with animal art in a nursery?

Soft greens, whites and sage tones pair easily with woodland pieces like Soft Watercolor Deer or Highland Cow in Mist. If the room leans blue, Meditative Mallard Moment keeps the palette calm and cohesive.

What size canvas should I hang above a crib or dresser?

Each piece comes in seven sizes from 12x18 to 40x60 inches, so choose one that spans roughly two-thirds of the furniture below it. A horizontal piece such as Rustic Cabin Deer Scene suits a wide dresser, while vertical pieces like Bright Yellow Butterfly work well in pairs on a narrower wall.

Should I choose a framed or unframed canvas for a nursery?

Unframed canvas gives a clean, modern look, while a black, white or natural wood frame adds a finished touch. A natural wood frame suits earthy pieces like Deer Herd at River’s Edge, and a white frame keeps Exquisite Butterfly Sculpture light and airy.
