Hey Lykkers, have you ever stood in front of a painting, a sculpture, or a photo and felt something shift inside you — like a quiet “click”? That feeling means the art has connected with you.

But with so many styles and forms out there, how do we pick the kind of art that truly feels like ours? Today, we’re diving into a fun and thoughtful guide to help us discover the art that matches our hearts.

Why Art Matters in Our Everyday Life

Art isn’t just something we see in galleries or museums — it’s everywhere. From the prints on our walls to the doodles in our notebooks, art shapes how we feel and express ourselves. Picking the right kind of art isn’t about trends or rules. It’s about choosing what brings us joy, peace, inspiration, or maybe just makes us smile after a long day.

Start with What Moves You

We all react differently to art. Some of us love bold colors and wild shapes, while others feel drawn to soft tones and quiet scenes. One great way to start? Notice how you feel when you look at different art styles. Does abstract art excite you or confuse you? Do you enjoy realistic portraits or dreamy landscapes? Pay attention to your emotional response — that’s your inner taste talking.

Explore Different Styles Without Pressure

We don’t need to be art experts to enjoy exploring. Let’s walk through a few popular styles together:

- Abstract Art – Think splashes of color, emotion-driven shapes. Perfect for those who love freedom and open interpretation.

- Realism – Everything looks just like real life. Great for people who appreciate detail and precision.

- Impressionism – Soft, dreamy strokes and natural light. If you like peaceful, poetic moods, this one’s for you.

- Pop Art – Bright, bold, fun. Inspired by everyday life and media. Love energy? You might love Pop.

- Minimalism – Clean, simple, calming. A great choice if you enjoy space, order, and modern vibes.

Try visiting galleries, online art platforms, or even browsing Pinterest. Save the images that catch your eye — you’ll soon notice a pattern.

Art as a Mirror of Who We Are

The kind of art we’re drawn to often reflects our personality. Are we adventurous, calm, nostalgic, playful? Maybe we’re a mix. Art lets us express sides of ourselves we can’t always put into words. That’s why picking art is also about understanding who we are and how we want our space — or even our digital presence — to feel.

Think About Where You’ll Place It

Whether we’re decorating a home, creating an online gallery, or just adding personality to our room, the context matters. A colorful modern print might brighten a living room, while a soft watercolor may calm us in a bedroom. If we’re buying or printing art, let’s think about how it fits with our lifestyle, colors, and mood.

Support Artists Who Resonate With You

Once we know what kind of art speaks to us, it’s amazing to discover artists who create in that style. Following independent artists online, attending local art fairs, or even commissioning something personal can build a deeper connection to the art we choose. When we know the story behind the work, it becomes even more meaningful.

It’s Okay to Evolve

Just like our taste in music or clothes changes, our art preferences may shift too. Maybe we start off loving black-and-white photography, but later fall in love with bold abstract canvases. That’s perfectly natural. Art grows with us — and we’re allowed to change our minds, try new things, or simply enjoy the journey of discovering.

Let Your Heart Choose

Lykkers, picking your art isn’t about picking the “best” — it’s about picking what feels right. What makes you pause. What brings warmth to your heart or lights up your imagination. So don’t overthink it. Let your emotions guide you. Explore. Experiment. And when you find that piece that speaks to you, you’ll just know. Let’s keep making our spaces — and lives — more beautiful, one artwork at a time. Let’s pick our art, and let our art reflect who we are.
