Red Fan Burst Canvas Print

Once the bright red enters, the whole room stops apologising. This is a big, loose fan of brushstrokes in red, blue, green and cream over black and bright blue, and it sets the tone for everything around it. Put it up and a flat wall suddenly has a focal point: eyes go to it first, and the rest of the room can stay plain. It works on a hallway wall, above a low sideboard, or on a square patch between doors where nothing else fits. Pair it with dark wood, tan leather, chrome and one solid-colour rug. Don't crowd it with patterned wallpaper or other strong-colour art — give it clear wall on all sides. As a canvas the painted texture reads closer to the original brushwork.
