Every workday holds moments when your eyes drift away from the screen. Between two video calls, during a call that runs long, just before you pick up the next file. If, at that moment, your gaze lands on a living canvas rather than a bare wall, something in your shoulders lets go. This collection gathers 18 abstract paintings, hand-painted in oil on cotton canvas by Régine Gardan, chosen to support concentration: formats up to 70 cm and subdued palettes where deep blacks, blues and greens let the light move freely.
A workspace fills up quickly with useful things: screens, cables, notebooks, stacked folders. Among all of that, a painting serves no measurable function, and that is exactly what makes it so restorative. It gives your eyes a place to rest, a silent breath in the middle of the day. Looking away from the screen regularly does you good; a canvas hung a few metres away turns that healthy habit into a small daily pleasure.
Oil paint has a texture that no printed reproduction can imitate. The pigments catch the light differently through the day: a deep blue looks almost black in the morning, then opens up in the afternoon light. The painting lives with the room, and your eyes keep finding new relief in it. Each artwork is unique, painted by the hand of Régine Gardan, and that human presence can be felt, even in a space devoted to work. Especially in a space devoted to work.
Why does this collection favour subdued palettes? Because colours do not all tell our minds the same story. Blues evoke wide skies and calm water: they create a sense of space and serenity that helps you think clearly. Greens recall foliage; they rest the eyes and soften the cold light of screens. Deep blacks bring grounding: a visual anchor that structures the room without weighing it down.
You already know these intuitions: nobody paints their meeting room bright red. If the subject intrigues you, our article on the psychology of colours explores what each shade awakens in us. For a workspace, keep the simple idea that guided this selection: quiet harmonies, rich enough to nourish the eye, discreet enough never to hold it by force.
When you work from home, a painting plays a double role. It gives personality to the desk corner, often set up in a living room or bedroom, and helps it exist as a true place of work. It also dresses the background of your video calls: an abstract canvas in subdued tones says something about you without ever distracting the person across the screen. You will find more ideas on our page about office decoration with abstract art.
In a practice, an agency or a waiting room, the stakes shift. Your visitors read your space before they listen to you: an original artwork, with its visible texture and brushwork, expresses care for detail far better than a standardised poster. It says that here, things are chosen with attention. To furnish whole professional premises, our guide to corporate decoration with abstract paintings walks you room by room, from reception to meeting room.
The most reliable rule: hang the artwork at eye level, its centre around 1.60 m from the floor, where your gaze naturally lands when you look up from the screen. The formats in this collection, up to 70 cm, fit almost anywhere: above a low shelf, facing your desk, in line with the door to greet the eye as you walk in. In a small space, a 30 to 50 cm format is enough to change the atmosphere; our collection of small abstract paintings gathers more artworks made for intimate walls.
One helpful habit: let the canvas breathe. A wall that surrounds it generously amplifies its presence, like silence around a true note.
Yes, all of them. Each painting was hand-painted in oil on cotton canvas by Régine Gardan, a French painter whose work won awards at art salons in Isère, France. There are no copies and no prints: the artwork you hang in your office exists nowhere else. Every canvas comes with its certificate of authenticity and arrives carefully protected, with free delivery across the European Union. This site is kept alive by her son, who carries on a legacy of more than 200 artworks; behind every canvas there is a true story, chosen pigments, and the gesture of a hand. Your workspace deserves that kind of light.
