Sardines on Pink Canvas Print

Sardines on Pink Canvas PrintWhat's the kitchen missing? Soft pink with some nerve. A shoal of painted sardines in silver blue and teal cuts across a brushy pink ground, and suddenly the room has a point of view. Hang it on a quiet wall where it can do the talking above a sideboard, in a galley kitchen, or on the wall a dining table faces. Pair with painted cabinets, rattan, linen and a bit of brass. Stoneware in cream or warm pink keeps the palette honest. Avoid putting it next

and the corner becomes the bit of the house people actually want to sit in

A living room this pared back can take one serious soft peach

The cream background keeps the wall light

The fine-art paper holds the soft pinks and dusty greens beautifully under a clean frame

or on a study feature wall where the geometry has room to breathe

It also works above a console in an entryway that wants a bit of personality

A field of thistles stands tall in soft pink and deep plum

a bit of glamour

This William Morris-inspired botanical wants a bit of confidence around it — deep navy ground

white walls and a few warm accents like terracotta pots or mustard cushions

and one or two flashes of coloured glass or ceramic

country-house mood
