Try it above the bed; the low horizontal water line will do the editing. Rooms with a lot going on settle down around this one, because there are only three things in it: light blue, deep navy and one white bird. Put it where you want the eye to stop over a headboard, above a low sideboard, or on a narrow hallway wall that needs one clear focal point. It sits well with pale linen, white paint, light wood and chrome or nickel fittings. Don’t crowd it with busy pattern or heavy gold; the quiet is the point, and anything loud beside it just makes both pieces work harder. As a canvas the brushed water picks up a little more texture.
