Endless Summer Vibes the Wall Art Backstory
There is nothing better than getting that Zen feeling you have at the beach. Recently, the art.Drops team curated a summer print collection to bring that same vibe to your home. A print collection dedicated to Summer Beach Fun.
Getting the workplace vibe right
The selection process took place during several Rosé happy hours courtesy of our local Whole Foods special on LE PETIT BALTHAZAR, CINSAULT ROSÉ 2023.¹ This rosé is fresh, easy drinking, fruity, naturally light in alcohol. Strong strawberries and blueberries, making a fresh and fruity attack but manages to stay balanced, dry not too sweet. Awesome! Plus, the Cinsault rosé is lower in alcohol than others so the work could be continued.

At $8.99 - ($8.09 on sale) there was plenty to go around on without breaking our Summer Friday budget in May. Be on the lookout at your Whole Foods – it won’t last long so try a bottle for your next brunch or happy hour.
But we digress, back to the art.
Endless Summer Vibes Collection
There is nothing better than getting that Zen feeling you have at the beach. Recently, the art.Drops team curated a summer print collection to bring that same vibe to your home. A print collection dedicated to Summer Beach Fun.
We wanted the collection to embrace the light sunny days and the moody misty morning, the sunsets, the rhythm of the waves, the power of the ocean, the pull of the moon and the changing scenes, and colors.
The collection ranges from solo surfers to best friends, to waves, and sun sets. The mood is always peaceful but sometimes with an underlying challenge. The one constant factor to become a part of the series was the mesmerizing power of the artwork to capture the viewer and transport them to somewhere else or a conversation starter for friends and family. And of course, we added some colorful aerial views that take you to remote beach scenes. This collection has something for every room from the spa bathroom to a living room to a home office.

Endless Summer Vibe Print Collection
Surfer White Out
Everyone on the team declared this a favorite for any room. The colors are amazing - subtle but bright. It makes you want to get to the beach, its misty – you feel the coolness of the day with no sun but lots of waves. It shows the promise of a great adventure. The surfer gives a vibe of a great conversation and a happy vibe.
Surfer Black Out
If you love black and white silhouettes, the Surfer Black out has a chic black and white overtone. The yellow board provides the only color, and the gray hues add a sophisticated vibe to the beach day.
Sunlit Long Board
Who does not love a blue velvet couch? No matter where you put this beauty of a sofa, (Sven at Article $1,299) the yellow long board compliments it perfectly. The ocean behind and gray sands bring a beach day into your space. The blues and yellow brighten up the room and add a getaway feel.
Solo Long Board
The Solo Long Board is a black and white sensation that adds a touch of moodiness. The grays and whites, and shades of black bring classic sophistication to the scene. The blues of the pillows add just the right touch of color to keep it from being drab. This print will add style to your space with soft minimal hues. Don’t be afraid of black and white with wood floors and accents, it complements the warmth of the wood hues, keeping the room from feeling overheated, especially in summer.
Surfers’ Dusk
You feel the day cooling off as the sun sets, and breeze picks up. The best friends linger thinking “let’s do one more” before the sun disappears. The violet, orange and yellows with the cooling brown tones brings a glow to your space and the idea a vacation day is almost here.
Bring Your Umbrella
It is so hard to choose the right art for over your spa tub, we think the colors in Bring your Umbrella add lighthearted peace to the scene. The vibe is easy, soft and you can almost feel the heat of the sun and cool breeze off the ocean waves.
Pink Sunset At the Beach
Serene sunset pinks keep the room cool, light and airy. The dune grass softens the ocean view. We love it over the summer bed with classic linen striped bedding and gauze curtains.
Beach Dune Grass
The blue-gray version is more neutral and matches the Parachute Home linen bedding in pastel colors perfectly for a slightly more sophisticated style.
Beach Umbrella Day
Colorful and bright this print captures the afternoon sunlight and warm ocean waters with gentle waves. The pink sands highlight the happy umbrellas and makes you want to hit the beach.
Boardwalk Jetty
This beach scene is so happy, the emerald green waters and pink sands, it gives off a warm vibe. The colorful umbrellas and people on the beach will have you planning your own beach day. It looks great in any room adding whimsical fantasy making power.
Dunes at Dawn
The sun is just coming as you watch the waves gently hit the beach. The remoteness and lack of people brings a mindfulness to the scene. A real zen visual to capture your mood and move to calm. We think this goes in a study or office or even near a dining spot in your home.
