May Apple Botanical Study Art Print

May Apple Botanical Study Art PrintCall it calm if you want; we call it better walls. This soft watercolour study of a May Apple plant brings a quiet, garden shed mood into the room broad green leaves drooping over a single white bloom, all on a warm sand coloured ground. Hang it where you want the noise to drop: above a bed, a writing desk, or in a narrow hallway that needs a moment of green. It sits well with pale oak, linen, rattan and chalky off white walls. Skip it if your room is

It earns its keep in entryways

deep blue and burnt orange to the wall

Skip it next to busy wallpaper or another loud poster — this one wants the wall to itself

Perfect for your living room or bedroom

a little more Mediterranean

The swirling night sky and gold towers do the heavy lifting

and a touch of brass or black lacquer

and the loose watercolour edges keep the wall feeling calm rather than busy

Off-white walls and aged brass fittings flatter the palette

Avoid crowding it with heavy gilt frames

It does its best work in a bedroom

or over a smaller sofa where you want the room to feel a bit more switched on
