Mood Board Inspiration for Architectural Abstract Art with 3D Painted Elements

The final mood board used for two custom paintings that include various photos of 3D elements, architecture, fashion, angles, perspectives, soft neutral colors, and nature. Selected images give me the inspiration for a structural 3D painted abstract artwork.

Inspirational mood boards of 3D elements, architecture, fashion, angles, perspectives, soft neutral colors, and nature photos for custom commission paintings.

Inspirational words regarding the paintings - viewing life and our situations with different angles and perspectives helps with solutions to obstacles or problems.

Design is a big part of who I am. I have spent my careers involved in some aspect of design. Throughout my design career years, I created inspiration boards for clients and have not often shared how I use them within my art process. They are helpful to create a commission or explore my thoughts for a new painting or series. It allows me to focus because my mind can race with different ideas and thoughts. The mood boards help create an environment and a mindset to paint. The amount of photos that I have saved over the years fills a file cabinet drawer :) That is a story about needed purging which I will not go into here!

Uncredited sources of the mood board photos. Over the years I have collected many photos from magazines, personal photos, images saved and printed from Pinterest, etc. If I have used a photo and you know of the person that should be credited, please let me know and I will note that in my blog. Thank you.
