Chrysanthemum and Paulownia by Sekka Art Print

Chrysanthemum and Paulownia by Sekka Art PrintWhat it adds isn't clutter. It's loose, off centre tension in the right places. A quiet room pale walls, natural wood, a low bench or a reading chair gets a focal point without losing its calm. The deep green and near black leaf carries the weight; the cream chrysanthemum and small purple bellflowers soften the edges. Hang it above a console, a low sideboard or a bed headboard at eye level. It pairs well with linen, pale oak, stoneware and paper

it holds the wall on its own

A watercolour of Annecy — white footbridge

then the deep brown start doing damage

Stretched on a wooden frame with crisp edges so the sage ground reads as a solid block of colour

Don't try to compete — keep the wall around it simple and let the small figures do the talking

Let yourself unwind with the tranquil blues and sun-warmed pinks of this Matisse-inspired scene

Anywhere people pass through and want something cheerful without it shouting at them

Colour stays grounded — deep green is a calm green

Don't try to soften it with floral chintz or cool grey schemes — the piece is the statement

and the cream background keeps things calm
