Modern, nature-inspired wall art is how Snoogs & Wilde owner/artist Sarah Martinez describes her prints. Her watercolor paintings are full of plants, animals, and other elements from nature, all painted in vivid colors and a slightly abstract style to give them a contemporary feel. She plays with content and style, so you’ll find everything from a large colorful fish to Scandinavian-style abstract shapes, and a whole lot more. 

Star-seller Morten Hoffmeyer sells original vintage posters from the late 1800s to the 2000s from all over the world through his shop, OutofCopenhagen. Find everything from art exhibition posters to pop art to movies, advertisements, graphic design greats, and sports events like this poster for the 1982 World Cup in Madrid.

UK-based Chilean artist Carla Llanos’ illustrations are a celebration of women in all their varied forms. Her earth-toned, abstract designs often depict women sitting alone or together, and they’re both soothing and empowering. We love her portraits of slow life and prints from her paintings of floral-patterned pottery. 

If you’ve run out of room for plants in your home, bring nature in with Kate Shriner’s mixed-media art. She combines real pressed flowers, gold leafing, and watercolor to create stunning, textured prints of celestial and botanical objects. Each print is unique thanks to the real flowers, but all are full of wonder. The simple Neutral Moon print makes an awe-inducing astrological addition to any room. 

Joy and representation are what drive artist, illustrator, and author Meenal Patel. Her cheerful prints, greeting cards, and children’s books depict women and children of diverse backgrounds, giving everyone the chance to see themselves reflected in art. “Priya Dreams of Marigolds & Masala” makes a great gift for the young, budding reader in your life, while the Women March On print is an empowering addition to your gallery wall. 

This paper goods store sells prints of quotes and images written and designed entirely on a chalkboard. The artist, Valerie McKeehan, carefully draws her art on the chalkboard, photographs it, and sells the final pieces as wall prints, cards, and other stationery. Most of her designs are uplifting sayings and cute phrases, like this “Smile, Breathe, Go Slowly” print with lemons in the background. All will bring a bit of joy to your life and give you that rustic chalkboard look — without any dust. 

The old-school art of collage gets a contemporary upgrade with Mirlande’s mixed-media creations. The artist, Mirlande Jean-Gilles, uses images from magazines and books to create varied scenes, all of which feature Black women. Many of her pieces also incorporate an astrological element like starry skies or shiny galaxy patterns. Girl With the Big Afro, which depicts a faceless collaged woman against a green watercolor background, is one of her bestsellers. 

If you’re looking to bring a bit of modern, minimal art into your home at an affordable price, this shop’s printable pieces are your bullseye.
