By: Isabella Nicastro, Curation and Artist Liaison at Partial

As the summer continues to heat up, a refresh of new art representing Canada coast-to-coast is the perfect way to complement the bright, sun-soaked days of the season. 

There are tons (thousands, actually) of art pieces on Partial. For those of you who love the hunt and the process of sharpening your own taste in art, dive right in. However, if you’re looking to shop from a curated down offering, our curated collections are the place to start.

Whether you’re looking to liven up your space with bold colours and abstract patterns, create a calming retreat with natural landscapes, or discover a contemporary-style piece that speaks to you, these three collections are designed to spark inspiration and showcase some of the newest pieces that have caught our eye.
