"Too safe," said nobody standing in front of soft pink. This abstract block painting brings warm colour and a real hand-painted feel to a room without shouting. The deep red triangle in the middle does the heavy lifting — it holds your eye and gives the softer pinks, mustards and creams something to push against. Hang it above a sofa, a console or a low sideboard in a living room, or behind the bed in a quieter scheme that needs lifting. Pairs well with linen, bouclé, oak, brass and stoneware in warm earth tones. Skip the busy gallery wall — this one wants a clear stretch of wall and a bit of breathing room. Stretched over a wooden frame and ready to hang.
