City Street in Bloom Canvas Print

When the living room feels over-arranged, this kind of cityscape helps. It brings movement to a wall that has gone quiet and polite, and it gives the eye somewhere to travel. Hang it above a sofa, a sideboard or in the stretch of hallway where nothing has ever worked. The pinks and deep reds lift painted walls in off-white, warm grey or soft green, and the navy roofs pick up dark upholstery and painted joinery. Keep the surrounding shelf simple: a couple of plain ceramics, one plant, nothing else competing. Avoid hanging it next to other heavily patterned art, and skip busy wallpaper directly behind it. As a canvas the brushwork reads softly, with no glazing between you and the colour.
