As AT’s Senior Style Editor, I cover the latest interior design trends, expert decorating ideas, and must-see home products. Whenever I’m not keeping tabs on the next TikTok “core” or buzzy IKEA collection, I’m most likely reading, online shopping, or looking for the best tacos in New York (recs are encouraged).

If there’s one decor trend I’ve been seeing all over my social media feeds the past few months, it’s textured wall art — most commonly, a simple, abstract white design on canvas made from plaster or painted brushstrokes in relief. These pieces have come in all different cool 3D shapes (arches! waves! geometric lines!) and sizes, each just as unique-looking and beautifully made as the next. I’ve also scrolled past my fair share of DIY textured wall art tutorials, breaking down how to easily recreate the look in your own home. Either way, I love that this tactile style feels fully one-of-a-kind and doubles as the perfect gallery wall addition or standalone statement piece in a hallway or above the bed.

If you’re wondering where to buy textured wall art and want to incorporate this kind of design into your own space, I rounded up some of my favorite pieces below from brands like Etsy, Pottery Barn, and even Amazon. Whether you’re looking for something modern and minimalist or on the more colorful side, there’s a painting for every style and budget. Just note that some run on the pricier side, given the handcrafted attention to detail, but I’ve also included some more affordable, lookalike prints that create the same effect, all starting at $14.

White Waves Plaster Textured Wall Art
$299$239

The abstract nature of this plaster Pottery Barn art makes it a subtle standout for any space. In fact, the wave-like motifs and lines even give off somewhat of a soothing ambience, perfect for hanging in a high-traffic home spot (the living room! a blank hallway! above your bed!). Pricing includes the hand-carved mango wood frame, as well, so it comes fully display-ready.

Slyart Black And White Painting
$130

Don’t underestimate Amazon's collection of beautiful, reasonably-priced textured wall accents. Take this 24-inch by 36-inch oil painting, for instance, which touts a minimalist design and high-contrast color scheme that can make any room (or rooms, plural) feel completely sophisticated. Best of all, it’s just $129.99, black frame included.

White Texture Canvas Painting
$50

When it comes to buying unique textured accents, Etsy's another shopping gold mine, which makes sense given the handmade offerings often associated with the site. That includes this spackled canvas, created by seller Curated in Kansas, complete with its versatile satin white paint finish. Currently, only two are available to purchase, but rest assured: The shop features a sizeable assortment of similar, equally eye-catching pieces. You can even stock up on different designs and hang them together for a mismatched diptych or triptych of sorts.

Relief [1] Print by Alyssa Hamilton Art
$14

Yes, this is a print rather than a painting, so it doesn't have the full tactile, 3D effect. That said, it’s still a stunning way to get the trendy textured look for way less. Which, speaking of, prices range from just $13.60 for an 8-inch by 10-inch size to $55.25 for a 28-inch by 36-inch version. Do the framing on your own with something inexpensive to save even more. Another bonus associated with this piece: Society6 also has a “view in your room” online feature, so you can essentially try before you buy to see how it would look in your space.

Ideal Gallery Arch Wall Art Green
$187$94

I love this handprinted arched art on its own, but the green pop of color adds that extra wow factor. If you're looking to make a big statement, this piece could be it. Choose from a range of larger scale sizes, starting at 24-inches by 18-inches all the way to 90-inches by 60-inches, as well as framed or unframed shipping options.

$94 at Etsy
Pieced Fabric Wall Art, White
$299$209

Rather than 3D brushstrokes, this West Elm artwork gets its texture from layers of cotton and silk. It’s equipped to hang vertically or horizontally as well, so you can play with different orientations. Best part? It’s 30 percent off right now.

$209 at West Elm
Framed Plaster Wall Art
$49

Another amazing Amazon find, this 13-inch by 20-inch plaster canvas has rave reviews and looks incredibly high quality, thanks to its pair-with-anything gold frame. Not bad for less than $70!

$49 at Amazon
The Beach Joys Ocean Hand Painted Textured Art
$351$176

Etsy seller New Age Abstract takes textured wall art to a whole new level, creating life-like beach and ski scenes via layers of paint (with customization options available, too). These run on the splurgier side, and it’s easy to see why, given their beautiful made-to-order constructions.
