Craig Hollister built this color block abstract painting out of one big, almost square slab of deep navy, laid in with a palette knife so thick you can see every ridge and scrape. A single band of emerald green crosses it low, running past the right edge, with a few chips of orange caught along the seams.
The ground is warm cream and soft blue-gray, set down in torn-looking strips that frame the navy block like layered paper. Where the knife dragged the paint thin, slivers of cream and teal peek through. It reads as a palette knife abstract painting first, but it carries the calm of a color field abstract painting too: a dark sky, a strip of land, deep water below, or nothing but color and weight.
It's for anyone who wants navy blue abstract wall art with real texture and a quiet, steady feel. If you've been looking for emerald green wall art that doesn't shout, that low green stripe does the work without taking over.
This canvas wall art hangs well above a sofa in a neutral living room, over a bed with linen bedding, or in an office where you want something grounded to look at. Cream walls, warm wood and brass bring out the navy and green.
