DESCRIPTION:
A luminous, fluid abstract painting inspired by the movement of water and layered natural rhythms—rich in texture, motion, and color. A statement piece for discerning collectors.
“Water flowers” is a sophisticated, large-scale abstract painting that evokes the fluid motion of water, the shifting of light, and the layered rhythms of nature. The composition unfolds in sweeping gestures of turquoise, cerulean blue, jade green, sienna, and soft coral, interwoven with translucent white strokes that create a sense of depth, movement, and atmospheric luminosity.
The work has a dynamic, almost tidal energy—waves of color drift, collide, and dissolve into each other, forming a mesmerizing visual field that shifts as the viewer moves. Its layered textures and rhythmic marks suggest both microscopic detail and vast landscapes, making it equally compelling from up close or across a room.
This piece is ideal for collectors who seek contemporary abstract artworks that balance emotional resonance with refined technique. It brings serenity, motion, and complexity to modern interiors, from luxury residences to curated professional spaces.
This large abstract painting for sale — a contemporary mixed-media artwork featuring layered turquoise, blue, green, coral, and earthy tones with fluid, wave-like motion. This original abstract wall art includes textural brushwork and organic flowing patterns reminiscent of water, currents, and natural energy fields. Perfect for luxury home décor, modern interior design, hotel art collections, and high-end art investors looking for unique contemporary abstract paintings available to buy online.

Original Abstract Oil Paintings for Sale on 1stDibs
With original abstract oil paintings, bring audacious experiments with color and textures to your living room, dining room or home office.
Whether they're large or small, abstract paintings will stand out in your space, encouraging conversation and introducing a museum-like atmosphere that’s welcoming and conducive to creating memorable gatherings.
Abstract art has origins in 19th-century Europe, but it came into its own as a significant movement during the 20th century. Early practitioners of abstraction included Wassily Kandinsky, although painters were exploring nonfigurative art prior to the influential Russian artist’s efforts, which were inspired by music and religion. Abstract painters endeavored to create works that didn’t focus on the outside world’s conventional subjects, and even when artists depicted realistic subjects, they worked in an abstract mode to do so.
In 1940s-era New York City, a group of painters working in the abstract mode created radical work that looked to European avant-garde artists as well as to the art of ancient cultures, prioritizing improvisation, immediacy and direct personal expression. While they were never formally affiliated with one another, we know them today as Abstract Expressionists.
The male contingent of the Abstract Expressionists, which includes Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning and Robert Motherwell, is frequently cited in discussing leading figures of this internationally influential postwar art movement. However, the women of Abstract Expressionism, such as Helen Frankenthaler, Lee Krasner, Joan Mitchell and others, were equally involved in the art world of the time. Sexism, family obligations and societal pressures contributed to a long history of their being overlooked, but the female Abstract Expressionists experimented vigorously, developed their own style and produced significant bodies of work.
When you've found the work(s) you'd like to bring into your home, think about how you want to arrange the art. If you’re working with a small living space, a colorful, oversize work can create depth in a given room, but there isn’t any need to overwhelm your interior with a sprawling pièce de résistance. Colorful abstractions of any size can pop against a white wall in your living room, but if you’re working with a colored backdrop, you may wish to stick to colors that complement the decor that is already in the space. Alternatively, let your painting make a statement on its own, regardless of its surroundings, or group it, gallery-style, with other works.
On 1stDibs, you’ll find a wide range of original abstract oil paintings along with a guide on how to arrange your wonderful new wall art.
