Sunflower Dogs in Blue Art Print beachscape and the room slows down

and the room slows down a notch around them

or as the cheerful end-note of a galley kitchen

Not enough honey gold

hand-painted in the early 1900s by Kamisaka Sekka for his book Cho Senshu (One Thousand Butterflies)

Anything warm and matte stops the teal feeling cold

Sunflower Dogs in Blue Art Print beachscape and the room slows downIn the 1960s, this would have felt radical. It still does. Two dogs stand proudly, their bodies covered in orange sunflowers against a bold deep blue. It's folk art energy with a modern, illustrated confidence. Drop this into a room and the mood lifts immediately. It brings warmth, humour and a strong shot of colour without feeling loud. Hang it on a chalky off white wall in a kids' room, above a low console in a hallway, or on a painted feature wall
