The trend is grounded in calming, earth-toned colors and centered on a connection with nature. Instead of trees or the ocean—trends we have seen in the past—the Earthy Abstractions art trend is inspired by the desert. Deeper than just art on a wall, the trend delves into the cultural mood of seeking connection with nature. After multiple sterile, plastic-filled years of pandemic life, this art style satisfies our longing for natural, organic textures and colors.

The Design Recipe: What makes this trend tick?

Elements that make the Earthy Abstractions art trend obsession-worthy include a calm energy that offers a sense of well-being and comfort, a strong connection with nature, and an overall sense of warmth and groundedness. Here are the design basics:

Desert hues:

Fall colors take a trip to the desert and give this art trend visual warmth and richness. Your palette includes warm neutrals, clay, rust, and peach, plus mustard and turmeric yellows punctuated by pops of cool gray, periwinkle blues, and even black.

Organic forms abound:

Organic geometry, line, and shape are prominent in this collection. You'll also find plenty of recognizable—but still abstract—forms, like faces, urns, nude figures, or mountainous landscapes.

Visual texture galore:

A feast for the eyes, the Earthy Abstraction trend puts a strong emphasis on visual texture. Painterly strokes, layers of color, hand-drawn lines, and the visual appeal of textured paper give a handmade feeling that is perfect in its imperfection.
