Hi, I’m Brooke!

I’m an abstract artist who loves to dash color across the canvas. Through my original paintings, prints, handpainted wallpaper and custom home decor, I bring joy to thoughtfully-designed spaces.

Art that is personal

Stop dealing with the frustration of searching thousands of online images or the same big box store designs for personal art for your home. Because if art is made for the masses, is it really made
for you?

Commissioning a painting turns your house into a home. It makes your space yours. Having a one-of-a-kind abstract painting helps your home become a place that speaks of you, not somebody else.

Brooke was an absolute pleasure to work with while creating a custom painting for my home. She was flexible in the planning process, offering FaceTime and in-person consultations. I was able to share various color palettes with Brooke and she carefully helped me with my vision. The final product is beautiful and perfect for my space. I could not be happier!

Let’s create something beautiful together!

Have you ever clicked on an ad for an amazing product on your social media page, only to be led down a funnel of cheap products, false advertising, and non-existent customer service? Stop the scrolling!

When you commission an abstract painting from me, you get, well, me - a human who is able to have a conversation with you and address your wants and needs for art in your home, not by a cold algorithm but through thoughtful listening and understanding. 

There’s a lot of impersonal art out there.

Let me create a piece that’s unique to you and your space.

Commissions are personal, but not complicated. 

Through our initial conversation, I’ll assess your needs in color scheme and what size of abstract painting fits best. I’ll help guide you through the entire process so you end up with a custom-made piece that you love for your home. After listening to your needs,  I’ll do a few sketches to give you a vision of the painting. Once we’ve communicated on time frame and price, I get to work creating the commission just for you!

 

Still Have Some Questions About Commissions? 

I am happy to help! 

How long does it take?
On average, Brooke Harris abstract art pieces take about 6-8 weeks to create. Starting the conversation with me gets you on the list. 

How much does it cost?
Since pieces vary in time, size, complexity, and material, I don’t have a standard price. However, before I begin to paint we will make sure to go over all the details including price and timeframe. A 50% deposit is required to begin work with the balance due upon completion.

Is each piece one of a kind?
Yes! Every piece is created for a specific client. Each stroke of paint and abstract form is unique to the client’s wants and personality making it a totally one-of-a-kind piece of abstract art. 

Do you help with installation? 
Yes! I am happy to guide clients as to what size painting is best for their spaces. Upon completion of the commission, I will deliver and help install the piece so it looks its best. Each painting comes varnished to preserve it for years to come. I also install hanging hardware and wire to each piece for easy installation. 

How do I get the process started? 
Fill out this quick inventory to get your commission started. I look forward to working with you and creating a beautiful piece of abstract art for your home.

Handpainted Wallpaper Turns Your Blank Walls
into Amazing Spaces

Paintings aren’t the only way to add art to your walls. Adding handpainted wallpaper or a mural to your space turns it into an instant art piece. I love to create custom wall designs based on clients’ needs.

Whether it is an impressionistic mural for a nursery or an overall abstract wallpaper design, I love to bring creative and unique designs to your home or business. 

I’ll come view your space, meet with you to talk about your style and needs, and give you a free quote for artistic work. From there, we can get the process started by adding amazing art to your walls to make your space truly unique.

 

How My Painting Journey Began 

I fell in love with art at an early age - constantly sketching or crafting new things made out of bits of glitter and tissue paper. I took every art class I could in high school, winning awards and the admiration of my teachers, but I thought I needed to do something responsible and to “get a real job”, so I gave it up in college.

But after some major soul searching and prayer, I’m back to my first love of painting. I’m an abstract artist who brings joy and life to thoughtfully designed spaces through my custom art pieces.

I live in the beautiful horse country of Lexington, KY, and have a B.A. in Journalism (minor in art) and MFA in Writing. I live with my two spirited daughters and my incredibly supportive husband.

With abstract acrylic techniques, I like to create pieces that are scenes of time and space. While most of my paintings are non-referential, they are strangely familiar and evoke memory and emotion. They depict metaphors of something greater than the physical: a spiritual reality expressed in paint.

I love getting to work with clients who know the importance of creativity and artwork in their spaces. Abstract paintings of mine can be seen at the University of Kentucky Hospital, Artique Gallery, and Art House among other boutiques.

Why Abstract Art?

Abstract acrylic painting by Brooke Harris, small spacescape

Years ago, as a young artist, I thought that the best art was that which was the most realistic. I painstakingly dabbed lime green pastels to the paper to draw an apple so realistic you reached out to touch it. While it was impressive, it didn’t make me or the viewer feel anything, but a little admiration for the talent.

Unlike that realistic drawing of an apple, abstract artwork is powerful. It makes you feel something because each viewer looks at the piece with his or her own background, memories, and life experiences. Each painting stirs the soul and can invoke emotions and what it is to be human. 

Now imagine you had a piece like that in your home, your solace and respite place. Whenever you look at your abstract art piece you feel peace and joy. That’s what I create when I paint custom commissions - personal abstract pieces that make people feel at home.
