Today I’m sharing how to make Easy DIY Watercolor Abstract Wall Art!
Need budget friendly and quick art for your walls?
See how easily I whipped up this gorgeous DIY Watercolor Abstract Wall Art and created a large scale gallery wall for my living room.
Using large IKEA square frames and the Waterlogue App I turned a photo I took of a wave at a tropical beach we traveled to a few years ago into these 4 stylish graphic art pieces!
I love the focal point they create above my sofa and the color and pattern they add to the room!

What a beautiful set of pictures. I just downloaded Waterlogue and have been playing with creating some pictures of my girls.
Would you be willing to share your source image? I love those waves.
Hi Katie! I’m glad you love Waterlogue as much as me and my post! The wave is a picture I took myself at the beach!
They are so pretty! I love how the white border compliments the blue!
Thanks Susan – I love the white and blue together too!
Love this! Do you know what size photo paper you printed them on?
Hi Melissa – I just used regular 8 x 10 sized paper and cut out around the image after printing. Glad you like it! 🙂

Thanks Tracy – so glad you like my DIY art! LOVE your app!
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for the info on the Waterlogue app. It is addictive. I love watercolor pics. Have you ever tried to print them on watercolor or textured paper? I wonder if it would work.
Any paper you can print on will work Jenn! I love this app too! 🙂
