Beach Umbrellas Sketch Study Canvas Print

Seen beside painted timber, the beach umbrellas lose nostalgia and gain grit. The crayon marks feel quick and unfussy, which keeps the colour from tipping into sweet. Hung in a kitchen, bathroom or sunny entryway, it lifts the corner it lives in small spaces feel more confident, not busier. Pair it with rattan, painted wood, linen tea towels and one ceramic in terracotta or cream. Brass hooks and pale oak floors give it room to breathe. Don’t hang it next to anything precious or overly polished gilt frames, formal portraits and busy florals will fight it. It belongs with things that have a bit of holiday in them.
