Coastal Shell Study Canvas Print

Coastal Shell Study Canvas PrintThere's a reason illustrators kept returning to coastal shells; rooms still respond. Six shells sit on a soft sky blue ground, inked in black and warm grey with the rough edges of a hand pulled print. It brings a calm, seaside feel without leaning kitsch. Hang it in a bathroom above the basin, in a bedroom beside the window, or in a coastal hallway where the blue can breathe. Pair it with pale oak, rattan, linen and white painted woodwork. Stoneware

It turns a flat wall into a focal point without going chintzy

and the sandy cream keeps everything from feeling loud

a still pool

reminding you that the universe is on your side

this kind of market scene belonged to another kind of home — a holiday postcard

each lost in their own quiet errand

Keep the surrounding wall calm — no busy patterns crowding in

palm trees and an art deco hotel onto the wall in clean watercolour

on a narrow wall at the end of a hallway

making it effortlessly easy to style

woven baskets and the odd knitted blanket in dusty pink or sage

This print pulls a holiday view straight into the bedroom — open shutters
