Joyful Gathering Canvas Print

Once the mustard yellow enters, the whole room stops apologising. Four dancing figures throw their arms up around a flame of golden fronds, ringed by leaves, stars and tiny flowers in pink, deep blue and coral. Put it somewhere people pass through and pause a hallway, a kitchen wall, a child-free playroom for grown-ups. It lifts a flat painted wall, and earns its keep above a sideboard, a bench or a small console. Pair it with pale wood, woven baskets, linen and one or two big leafy plants. Keep nearby walls quiet so the colour can do the talking. Avoid hanging it next to anything heavily patterned or another loud illustration give it room to breathe.
