Sunrise Peak, Palette Knife Mountain Art Print

By late afternoon, the mountain stops looking decorative and starts working. As the light drops, the pink and cream ridges warm up and the slate blue shadows deepen, so the whole wall gets softer rather than flatter. Hang it above a bed, a sofa or a console table where the vertical shape can draw the eye up. It sits happily with pale oak or walnut, cream linen, wool throws and stoneware, and it holds its own on a chalky off-white or soft grey wall. Don’t crowd it with busy pattern or lots of small frames the thick brushwork needs breathing room. Keep the surrounding wall quiet and let the peak be the one thing you notice. On fine-art paper the ridged brushwork stays crisp and the paler tones keep their softness.
