With a summer garden still life, scale decides whether the bedroom wakes up. Go too small and the loose brushwork reads as a smudge from the doorway; at a decent size the sage green chair, cream throw and that scatter of red strawberries start doing real work. The wall softens. The room feels like late June even in February. Hang it above a chest of drawers, on a landing wall, or on the quiet stretch beside a bed. It sits happily with painted furniture, linen bedding, rattan and cream ceramics. Don’t crowd it with strong graphic prints or hard black metal fittings the brushwork needs a bit of breathing room to read properly. On fine-art paper the paint texture and soft edges stay crisp and clear.
