Casual chic art is a vast art category that encompasses a variety of styles and subjects. These works are often valued for their aesthetic appeal and their ability to complement nearly every kind of decorative scheme, whether it's placed in a personal or professional venue. Casual chic art often uses nature themes and graphic design in order to establish a certain theme.
The majority of casual chic art are nature-based prints that redefine or reinvent their subject matter in some way, whether it's for thematic or aesthetic reasons. These works often contain pop art images or elements, as seen in the casual chic print 'Red Bird' by Swan Papel. However, these nature-based prints span a variety of abstracted and representational styles.
Many works of casual chic art are actually abstract images with no recognizable subject matter. These images often contain relaxing or meditative themes and are highly popular in professional venues for their thematic and aesthetic properties. Abstract images like 'Inner Sanctuary I' by Norm Olson and 'Blue Foam I' by Randy Hibberd are characteristic of this form of casual chic art.
Although casual chic art isn't considered an official part of the pop art movement, many of these graphic design pictures contain elements from pop art paintings. This can mean stylized elements, as seen in 'Thai Spice II' by Kate Birch, or graphic design pictures like 'Filament De Vie II' by Shirley Novak.
