After the warm afternoon light shifts, the kitchen suddenly has a pulse. That is what this piece does three big sunflower heads in orange, mustard and cream, sitting on a strong teal background that keeps everything awake. Put it up and a plain wall stops being a gap and starts being the warm part of the room. It works above a sideboard, along a dining wall, or facing you as you come through the door. Pair it with pale timber, rattan, glazed stoneware and mustard or rust textiles. Don’t crowd it with other loud colour work or fussy small florals it wants room to breathe and one clear stretch of wall to itself. On fine-art paper the brushwork ridges stay crisp and close-up.
