Kelly Brandt painted a wide band of scalloped waves straight across this oversized abstract canvas. Each arch nests into the one below it like hand-set tile, alternating deep navy, cobalt and a soft sand center. You can see every brushstroke in the thick paint, and the slight wobble in the curves keeps the pattern from feeling stamped.
A single thin burnt orange line rides along the top edge of the waves, a small warm note against all that blue. Above and below, the cream ground is brushed loosely, leaving plenty of quiet space around the pattern. It reads as both a nod to mid century modern wall art and a simple, hand painted abstract canvas with a clear rhythm.
This piece is for anyone who likes pattern and order but wants to see the hand of the painter. If you have been looking for navy and cream wall art that feels calm instead of busy, or modern geometric canvas art with some warmth to it, this one fits right in.
The long horizontal band makes it a natural choice for abstract art above bed frames, sofas or a low credenza. Pair it with walnut wood, linen and brass, and this navy abstract wall art will tie the room together as canvas wall art you will enjoy looking at every day.
