Choosing the Perfect Scene to Match Your Home Décor
Share
When choosing art for your home, it’s not just about colour and size — it’s about the feeling the piece brings into your space. Whether you live by the coast, in the heart of the city, or in a quiet rural setting, there’s an artwork that can transform your room and reflect your personality.
At Marie McInerney Arts, I create a wide range of original oil paintings and limited edition prints — from Irish landscapes and seascapes to impressionist cityscapes and colourful pours. Each style evokes a different mood, making it easier to find a piece that harmonises beautifully with your décor.
Coastal and Seaside Décor – Seascapes
If your home has a relaxed, coastal or nautical feel, seascapes are the perfect match. Soft blues, greys, and whites echo the natural tones of the ocean and sky, bringing calm and openness to a space. A seascape above a sofa or in a hallway instantly adds a sense of movement and tranquillity.
I often paint scenes from the Irish coastline, capturing that unique mix of light, weather and energy that only Ireland’s shores can offer. Whether you prefer a crashing Atlantic wave or a peaceful harbour scene, a seascape can make your home feel fresh and airy all year round.
Modern or Minimalist Décor – Abstract Pours
For homes with a modern, minimalist, or contemporary look, a colour pour can be the perfect statement. My pours are created using flowing layers of colour — each one unique and full of life.
They suit spaces with clean lines and neutral palettes, adding vibrancy without clutter. A large abstract pour over a modern sofa or bed becomes the room’s focal point — a conversation starter that radiates energy and movement.
Country or Rustic Interiors – Landscapes
If your home has warm woods, natural textures, and a rustic charm, then landscapes are an ideal choice. My Irish landscapes capture rolling hills, quiet lakes, and golden fields — scenes that bring the outside in.
Landscapes in greens, golds, and soft earth tones work beautifully with country-style kitchens or living rooms, adding warmth and serenity. Even a small limited edition print can create a sense of depth and grounding in a cosy space.
Urban, Eclectic, or Industrial Spaces – Impressionist Cityscapes
For apartments, townhouses, or rooms with an urban edge, my impressionist cityscapes bring personality and light. I love painting Ireland’s colourful streets and reflections in the river, capturing the energy and character of city life.
These works pair beautifully with exposed brick, metal, or mixed textures — adding warmth and colour to otherwise cool spaces. A cityscape connects your space to memory and place, reminding you of home, travel, or daily life through a lens of light and motion.
