Pizza Pause Portrait Canvas Print

Pizza Pause Portrait Canvas Print'Too safe,' said nobody standing in front of soft pink. This hand drawn portrait brings warmth and a little humour to walls that need cheering up. The girl's rosy cheeks, scribbled hair and slice of pizza turn an ordinary corner into a moment that makes people smile. Hang it above a kitchen counter, by a breakfast nook, or in a kids' room or nursery where the soft pink can do its work. It sits beautifully with pale wood, cream cabinets and pops of red

Hang it slightly lower than adult eye-level so little ones can actually see Peter and the sparrows

while the pale yellow sky keeps it from going gloomy

linen and white ceramics

sky brushed in light strokes

Hang it and a quiet room picks up a gentle wash of colour without going loud

With a vintage botanical

the terracotta rooftops looks almost illegally fresh

the corner stops being a corner

with broad green leaves and dusty blue berries — a Plate from Audubon's Birds of America

and the pink ground keeps everything friendly rather than serious

Keep the surrounding furniture quiet — this print is the loudest thing in the room and that's the point

The room picks up a quiet warmth without tipping into pastel
