2025 Art & Interiors: Artwork Ideas to Bring Beauty to Your Everyday Spaces You Love

I'm kicking off the New Years with sharing inspiring interiors and artwork and how these two elements working together can bring some more beauty to your everyday spaces that you love in 2025.

Some of the artwork will be mine, and some will be other artists. I am hoping that this outpouring of beautiful interior spaces will inspire you and how you can refresh your New Year with a bit more beauty in the places you live your life. 

For the next several weeks in January, and into February, I'll be showcasing artwork, interior designers based in Texas and other inspiring creatives and the beautiful spaces they create.

Personally for me this is something that is deeply fulfilling for me as an artist, to create paintings, and then to see how the artwork lives in someones space, and I hope my artwork helps people to see a bit more beauty in the everyday moments of their lives. I hope this series of interiors and artwork inspires you in the New Year, and gives you ideas on how to seek and see more beauty. 

I'll be sharing these interiors and the artwork here on my website, and also on my instagram: @courtneyholderart

Idea 1: Artwork and Wall Color. I love how wall color and artwork work together to compliment each other, and provide interest and resting space for the artwork to breathe.

This aqua pastel wall color brings out the various blue colors of this Austin oil painting of the Lamar Bridge down on Ladybird Lake. The wall color surrounding the artwork helps you to see the painting more completely.

Idea 2: Whiskey Art Subject & Bar Room Function. There is a simple beauty when the room functions ties together with the subject matter of the painting.

For example, when the whiskey bar showcase a unique and iconic whiskey like this Blantons print of an oil painting. Blantons is my favorite whiskey, so I’m a bit partial to decorating a whiskey bar with unique artwork that celebrates this unique and iconic bourbon from Kentucky’s Buffalo Trace.

Idea 3: Restful Artwork for a Sanctuary Bedroom of White

Idea 3: A sanctuary bedroom with restful mountain artwork. I love how the bed’s headboard and the sconces on either side of this artwork function as an additional framing element for this sunset painting of Big Bend National Park. It almost provides this white border similar to a white mat board provides in a frame. The further white simplicity of the bedroom and the honey warm wood elements of the furniture, flooring and frame tie everything together in understated elegance.

Idea 4: Retro Architecture Artwork of Austin to Match Retro Office Vibe

Art & Interiors Idea 4: Architecture paintings of bridges and buildings skylines in office spaces with warm wood tones of the furniture and the blues of water and sky paintings. I love how the interior decorating elements of this office space and colors all work together to create a beautiful and functional space especially with that retro vibe. The Austin 360 Bridge was built in the 70s and early 80s and the retro vibe of the bridge matches the retro vibe of this office.

Come back as I continue to showcase more beautiful spaces that I hope inspire you in how artwork and interior spaces can work together to add a little more beauty to your life.

This art and interiors series is apart of a series over the next couple weeks to hopefully inspire you with beautiful ways to refresh the spaces in your home and office with art and ideas from Texas interior designers I admire. As I post new art and interior ideas on Instagram, I’ll be compiling all these ideas here on this art blog to make it easier to see them all at once.
