Try it above the sideboard; the loose brushwork will do the editing. The cream ground keeps things calm while the pink, yellow and blue crabs add real personality.

A neutral kitchen or bathroom suddenly has a focal point. Walls that felt a bit blank pick up colour without going theme-y or kitsch.

Works above a console in a hallway, beside a bath, or over a kitchen sideboard. Looks best where there's a bit of natural light to catch the pinks.

Pairs well with rattan, painted timber, warm oak, glazed ceramics and pale linen. A simple oak frame keeps the mood light; black sharpens it up.

Don't try to match it to a strict navy-and-white coastal scheme — it's softer and more illustrative than that. Printed on premium fine-art paper.
