Small abstract painting: a touch of colour, exactly where it belongs

26 original works in this collection.

Up to 50 cm, these canvases slip a touch of colour into the spaces we thought too small for art: a hallway, an office, a forgotten stretch of wall.

What size of painting for your wall?

Bare wall (no furniture)? An 80 to 100 cm format structures the space on its own.

The power of small formats

We often think an artwork has to be imposing to exist. It is not true. A small abstract painting works like a right musical note: placed in the right spot, it changes the atmosphere of a whole corner of the home. A hallway becomes welcoming, an office regains energy, a bedroom softens.

It is also the ideal format to start a collection. Every canvas by Régine Gardan is hand-painted, signed and one of a kind: a small format carries the same texture, the same vibrant colours as a large canvas, in a more intimate gesture.

Alone, in pairs, or as a wall of colours

A small format lives very well on its own on a narrow wall, resting on a shelf or above a desk. It also likes company: two or three canvases from the same colour family compose a rhythm, like notes of the same chord. You can pair a soft pink with a lively multicolour, or stay within a soothing range of greens.

Finally, it is the gift people remember: offering an original, hand-painted artwork remains affordable in a small format, and says far more than a mass-produced object.
