Black Cat at the Window Canvas Print

Black Cat at the Window Canvas PrintToo much beige. Not enough deep red. This fixes that. A black cat sits on a windowsill, framed by flat blocks of red, green, blue and mustard. The shapes are bold, the colours are confident, and the whole thing has a quiet sense of humour. Put this on a wall and the room gets a jolt of colour without turning chaotic. The black silhouette gives the eye somewhere to land, so the brights stay in check rather than shouting over each other. It works best

A brass lamp nearby and you're done

a line drawing

Hang it where people walk past — an entryway

This is a piece that rewards a slightly braver wall

It works like a window onto a favourite London street without shouting for attention

between cupboards in a kitchen

so narrow walls and chimney breasts suit it well

Best on its own or as the calm anchor on a soft

brushed steel and a bit of matte black

Second glance: the still life doing something smarter — a green chaise nudging in from the corner

A pint of dark stout with a creamy head sits dead-centre on a hand-brushed mustard yellow background

Pairs naturally with walnut or teak
