Wallpaper - Angling in the Stream III

Our Angling in the Stream III wallpaper brings an artistic, mixed-media fish study by Courtney Prahl into a clean, modern wall mural format. Set against an off-white background, the horizontal trout silhouette is composed with newsprint collage textures, speckled brown patterning along the back, subtle dashes of blue, yellow, and orange, and painted fin details. The contrast between graphic silhouette and collage detail gives the piece a distinctive character that balances rustic heritage with contemporary illustration. Made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface texture, our wallpapers make it easy to introduce a focused, nature-inspired accent to your home.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well on an open feature wall where the horizontal silhouette of the fish has plenty of space to stretch out. In a kitchen, a dining nook, or a relaxed living space, positioning the motif above counter height, low cabinetry, or a bench seat ensures the graphic profile and subtle newsprint detailing remain fully in view. Because the background is light and open, the wallpaper creates visual interest without darkening the room or feeling visually cluttered.

Styling it

We like pairing this wallpaper with warm, natural materials that complement its earthy palette and handcrafted look. Matte painted woodwork in warm neutrals, cream, or soft umber creates a seamless transition to the background. Pair it with warm wood furniture, simple ceramic accents, or vintage-inspired hardware to lean into a modern farmhouse or rustic modern aesthetic. Keeping surrounding furnishings relatively simple allows the playful collage textures and speckled patterns to take center stage.

Color combinations

The motif itself combines earthy walnut browns, speckled dark tones, and newsprint sepia with accents of pale yellow, soft blue, and warm orange against an off-white field. When choosing surrounding colors, warm off-whites, parchment tones, and muted cream work naturally across adjacent walls. For cabinetry or accents, warm walnut, deep charcoal, or a muted slate blue highlight the colorful flecks within the fish without competing with the design.
