My geometric abstract paintings are created to do more than fill a wall — they shape uplifting environments that encourage joy, optimism, and calm.
Bright colors and clean forms bring energy to waiting rooms, offices, classrooms, and shared spaces, making them feel welcoming, engaging, and alive.
Patients, clients, and employees respond to color and shape. A vibrant work of art can ease anxiety in healthcare settings, spark creativity in offices, or energize classrooms.
My paintings and prints are chosen by institutions that want a positive, memorable, and creative environment.

Studio Session - Douglas Nelson
Douglas Nelson
Working from his home studio in Oak Park, Illinois, Douglas Nelson creates minimalist, geometric abstract art using acrylic on canvas. His work is defined by vivid color, clear structure, and an interest in how unexpected color combinations can lift the spirit.
Originally from Chicago, Douglas spent 33 years in Germany after an 18-month corporate assignment turned into a life-changing chapter. During that time, painting evolved from a hobby into a serious artistic practice.
His influences include mid-century artists such as Ellsworth Kelly, Victor Vasarely, and Donald Judd, as well as contemporary artists like Yaacov Agam.
