Seaside Siesta with Pup Art Print

Seaside Siesta with Pup Art PrintHere's the trick: let the sleeping dog cut through all that hot pink plaster. The room does the shouting; the dog does the settling. Hang it up and a quiet room suddenly has a story going on in the corner. The pink lifts the wall colour you already own, the blue sea pulls the eye, and the dog gives everyone something to land on. Best above a bed, a painted chest, or a small bedroom sofa. Works in a sunny hallway too, where the colour earns its keep.

where the eye can settle on it without distraction

Unlike most still life art

The room shifts straight away

So does keeping the rest of the wall empty

or a kitchen-diner with white or pale plaster walls

Hang it at eye-level on a chalky off-white or soft sage wall

sideboard or low chest where you walk past it daily

and the whole space slows down by a beat
