Amour Hand-Painted Typography Canvas Print

Amour Hand-Painted Typography Canvas PrintWhat it adds isn't clutter. It's loose brushwork tension in the right places. The word AMOUR is hand painted in deep red across a warm cream background flecked with ink, so it carries energy without shouting. Hang it in a bedroom above the bed, in a hallway as you come through the door, or in a kitchen above the counter where it lifts the whole room. Pair it with cream linen, warm oak or walnut, brass fittings and chalky off white walls. Soft clay

The tall painted townhouses pull the eye up

The couple

Don't pile other busy pieces around it

A black frame keeps the edges sharp

or in a den lined with leather and books

or a home cinema corner

This Hiroshige woodblock brings a slow

off-white and a soft pink edge

sparking smiles and conversations alike

Hang it where you want energy: above a desk

and the worktop catches a little of the shimmer

What to avoid: pastel rooms and busy floral wallpaper
