A bedroom is where the day slows down, and the art on its walls should do the same. In this edit, we gather calm, quiet works in soft palettes and gentle subjects, chosen for the room where you rest.
A bedroom is the first thing you see in the morning and the last thing you see at night, so the art in it should be easy to live with. This edit gathers 16 calm, quiet originals by Filipino artists, chosen for soft palettes and gentle subjects: sunsets, light through trees, still water and a child at rest.
Victor Kim Naquila of Calape, Bohol paints his Elyu Impressions series outdoors in La Union, catching sunsets over the Balili river in small oil studies. Limboy Picardal of Rodriguez, Rizal builds forests and trees by the water in thick palette-knife oil, so the leaves catch the light. Richard Buenaflor of Imus, Cavite paints Innocence, a child sitting with a lamb in the wilderness.
Sizes run from 6 by 8 inch studies that sit well on a nightstand wall to 24 by 36 inch canvases for the space above a bed. 16 are available now, from ₱8,000. Each work is a one-of-one original sold by the artist, and your payment is held in escrow until you confirm it arrived.

Calm subjects and soft colors usually work best: landscapes, water, gentle figures and quiet abstracts. They help the room feel restful. Very busy or dramatic pieces tend to suit a living room better, where you want energy instead of rest.
A common guide is a piece about two thirds the width of the bed, hung so the bottom edge sits 8 to 10 inches above the headboard. Two or three smaller works in a row also work well. Every listing gives the exact size in inches.
Originals. Each one is the single painting the artist made by hand. We don't sell prints or editions, so once a piece sells it can't be bought again.
Yes. The Elyu Impressions studies in this edit are priced under ₱10,000, and our Art Under ₱10,000 collection gathers more small originals at that price.
