Palma Courtyard in Bloom Art Print

Palma Courtyard in Bloom Art PrintCall it cheerful if you want; we call it better walls. A pastel illustration of a Palma de Mallorca courtyard pale pink townhouse, deep green shutters, palm fronds, pink blossom and tulips in front of a small cafe. Hang it and the room loosens up. Kitchens feel friendlier, hallways stop being just a corridor, and a quiet breakfast nook gets a holiday it didn't book. It suits a kitchen feature wall, a sunny hallway, or above a console in the entryway.

The harbour pulls the room outward — suddenly the sofa

with a copper-winged butterfly resting on the petals — confident

Hang it and the room feels a little more considered

soft cream stoneware and warm off-white walls

Second glance: the cat doing something smarter

One charming recipe illustration is enough

glossy or heavily patterned — the watercolour's gentle washes need a bit of breathing room to do their work

A bare bit of plaster turns into a statement

paper cut-out seaplane sits low against a peach sky and a calm blue sea — graphic

Works well in a hallway

Quiet rooms suddenly feel lived in
