Maybe it’s the cooler days – or maybe it’s the golden glow of farm fields after harvest. All I know is, I’m really drawn to landscape oil paintings lately. Here’s 14 inspirational rooms that have used a landscape painting to decorate the room.

Note how the red of the tree in the oil painting in the room beyond matches the red of the fireplace brick. I don’t know if that was intentional, but it’s a great way to tie the two rooms together. Not to mention, both fireplace mantels are gorgeous.

Here’s my favorite living room from a home tour I featured a while back. This room became the inspiration for changing things up in my own home recently. Like other homes, it features a pretty landscape painting above the fireplace, adding a touch of color to the neutral decor.

Would you ever think to put a landscape painting in your kitchen? This one breaks up the expanse of wall at the end of the galley.

There’s so much I love about this cozy corner – the vintage wicker chaise, dark linen drapes, the weather vane lamp, the bead board ceiling, and of course the pretty artwork.

Why stop at one landscape painting on the wall? Here a trio of pictures share wall space with a blue flow China platter.

Bedrooms make a great location for landscape artwork. Place a light above it for added dimension in the evening.

A muted landscape painting adds color to an almost all-white bedroom. The effect is serene and peaceful.

And if you just can’t get enough of landscapes in your home, why not have a mural painted on the walls? So gorgeous and what a classic and timeless look. I’d love to have this dining room in my home.

September 13, 2018 at 10:27 amWhile I’m not big on landscapes, I do love seascapes, especially harbor scenes with well-worn rowboats tied to piers. Pretty specific, I know. Also, I know I’m in the minority when I say I like galley kitchens with nooks at the end for dining, rather than eat-in kitchens. I’ve always felt that many designers fail to utilize the blank wall at the end of a galley, so the one you’re featured in your post is amazing and I love it – with the calm cool colors and the serene landscape. Just beautiful.

September 13, 2018 at 11:14 amI was fortunate to receive two paintings as gifts from my husbands aunt in Taos – she used to sell her art in a gallery there and her work is lovely. One is in the living room and one in the dining room – both really help make the room – beautiful colors, the serene subjects and even the beautiful frames all draw the eye. Most of my decor is very simple, so I like the added appeal that an actual, real painting done well brings to the space.

September 13, 2018 at 8:42 pmYes, I have always been drawn to landscapes. They can be traditional or modern, I love any kind. What I really like is when I go thrifting I find some very nice paintings. I have them all over the house!
