Modern Wall Art to Soothe the Weariest of Souls

Super-soft delicious textures: are you in?

The portfolio of one of our contributing photographers, Florene, is modern, clean and super macro. The wall art created from her work fits in so eloquently to any space because of its organic motifs and natural colors. Her photos are mostly botanical - some boast golden bamboo forests, soothing rippling water, delicate veins of tropical plant leaves, unruly straw-like bark from palms and many other raw subjects inspired by her native Florida.

What makes Florene's work so uncommon is that she takes what is ordinary to her surroundings and creates modern wall art with rich luscious colors, soft textures and warm emotion that could soothe any weary soul. At the macro level the imagery becomes abstract enough for your mind to fill in the blanks but still creates a satisfying composition.

Among my personal favorites are:

Orange Angles (Art 2919): Very nice macro of flame colored palm leaves. Notice the sharp crisp edges of the leaves and the 3-d texture. The color makes it yummy. Looks especially good in 2-34"x18" rectangles and 24"x56" rectangle. Mesh of Gray (Art 2943): Interesting silver background with black mesh in the foreground. The uniformity of the lines are tranquilizing but the viewer still keeps interest due to the imperfections in the weave. Looks especially good in 6-18"x18" squares and 2-18"x34" rectangles. School's Out (Art 2956): Small silvery fish dart (mostly) vertically in whimsical play. I love the subdued colors of this piece, which at first appear to be warm grays with splashes of indigo dollops of paint. As you investigate more closely you catch the detail of eyes, spines and tails. Really cool photo. Looks especially good in the 56"x24" rectangle where we catch light reflecting off the fish which creates a shimmer at the bottom of the piece. World Up Close (Art 2973): macro of a tropical plant leaf. The title is fitting since the colors and shapes are reminiscent of a satellite image of Earth. We see lime colored veins running through the leaf and it's mesmerizing. This one is probably my favorite from Florene's collection. Looks especially good in the 8-18"x18" squares and the 34"x34" square. Many items ship free. Check out Florene's portfolio here and experience the clean gorgeous wall art from modernmural.com.
