Venice Canal in Pastels Art Print

Venice Canal in Pastels Art PrintAt late morning, the Venice canal scene turns from nice idea to main character. The colours wake up a quiet wall turquoise water, ochre buildings, soft pink stone and a small white boat sitting in the middle of it. A neutral room gets warmth and a holiday feeling without going overboard. Walls in off white, pale plaster or soft greige let the pastels do the work. Works well above a sideboard, a console in the hallway, or over a bed. Hang at eye level

Before anyone mentions playful retro

it'll wake every oak shelf and brass handle around it

Vintage botanical fabrics and a soft wool rug under everything

water broken into blocks of teal and deep navy behind it

Pair it with one or two other food or drink prints in the same playful register

or another big graphic piece nearby will flatten the effect

the blues hold the room steady

The slope is soft pink and cream

the full moon picks up any soft light nearby

pink blooms and pale eucalyptus

or above a low console in a lounge that already leans warm

chalky paint
