Have you ever seen a monochrome abstract painting at an art gallery and thought, you could have done it yourself? The idea of doing your own art is a smart one as it will be a cost-effective and personable way of decorating your home.
Even if you don’t see yourself as a creative person, anyone can attempt at abstract art. All you need is a little bit of time, thick paper or canvas, brushes, paint and a cool idea that vibes with you.
For me, it’s monochrome abstract art that I love!
I’ve received a few questions about where I purchased this art over on Instagram and some of you were surprised when I say I Did It Myself.
You can find many ideas on Pinterest, and I’ve gathered a few myself. Check out my MONOCHROME ABSTRACT ART Pinterest board for inspiration.
