Paintings

Paula Langstein creates layered, expressive paintings rooted in the California coast. Each one doesn't just fill a wall. It defines the room around it.

“Original art doesn’t just fill a wall, it transforms the energy of a home.”

COLLECTORS SAY

What it feels like
to live with Paula's work

“Working with Paula was an absolute delight. She really understood the concept we were looking for with a commissioned piece. She is so incredibly talented and the depth of her work is fascinating. I see more and more each time I look at the piece. We commissioned a family portrait for a friend and she is over the moon with her gift. Truly wonderful to work with such a talented artist!”

-Wendy

“Working with Paula was an amazing experience. I saw her pieces and immediate they spoke to me. I especially loved the piece we now refer to as “Lady Liberty” and she custom made one for us to fit a specific place in our home. Paula’s story on what inspired the piece made us love it even more. It will be a piece our family treasure for generations. “
— Lisa

“I was immediately drawn to Paula’s work when I came across it. I have two pieces that live in our new home and it adds such character but also feels so familial. Paula also knows customer service..she came herself to gauge what size pieces would work on my walls to make sure I was certain of what I wanted. Absolutely would and do recommend her to anyone I come across!”
