©️Tropical Hues (2020), Mixed Media on canvas, 10"x 10" / 25cm x 25cm

This piece contains a real mish-mash of colours with gold accents, in a bid to push my collection into a brighter direction using orange and green, as well as the usual blues and pinks. When close up you can see lots of layers and experimental marks. From a distance, it can give a sitting room, for example, a light and airy feel. I found that it allowed my cottage to take on a more modern aethetic. It works really well with plain white walls and neutral curtains. The gold leaf accents encourage the light feeling to bounce around the room. For a small piece, this has an unusual grande impact. It has become another favourite because of how versatile it is with home decor themes and spaces.
