I Love Me a Good Ship Painting

I’ve been spending the last couple of days thinking about what great piece of art I’m going to hang over my new fabulous sofa.  I keep coming back to sailing and clipper ship paintings.  I love the bit of blue and vibrancy they can add to the decor as well as they carry a certain romantic appeal.

Here’s a few inspirational rooms that contain ships:

    Beautiful images, they are great spaces & the art work with the ships is a great theme for you to be thinking about. There is something so appealing about the sea & all thats neutical. hope you will share with us when you find your perfect piece of artwork. Thanks for stopping by my blog :)

    • I think the sea is so appealing as well. Even though I love it, I actually haven’t integrated it into my interior concept. So I have to decide if I will do that or not.
      I will be sure I post a pic when I find something I love!
      Thanks for stopping by, I’ve added you to my blog list.

  2. There’s something so classic about sailing paintings, and they can be incorporated in many different design styles. We have one in our house that was left by the previous owner. She said it “belonged” to the house. We have it in one of our guest rooms :)
