Drifting Maple Leaves by Shin Bijutsukai Canvas Print

For a living room full of curves, this autumn leaves study brings the check. Red, brown, cream and dusty purple maples sit against pale blue-green water swirls on a soft off-white ground, so the room gets a hit of seasonal colour without losing its quiet. Hang it above a low sideboard, a reading chair or a hallway console where it has space to breathe. It pairs well with pale oak and walnut, linen upholstery, stoneware in earth tones and warm paper lampshades. Avoid heavy florals or busy patterned wallpaper close by the leaves want a calm background to do their work. As a canvas, the off-white ground reads matte and warm, and the piece sits flush against the wall.
