I was approached to work up a commission for a hall space with a huge blank wall in need of some colour. The piece was to be influenced / designed around the colours used in the interiors of the whole house as well as interior furnishings and fittings.

The wall where the canvas was designed to go (to the right of the window) and the ceiling is painted in Farrow & Ball Setting Plaster which I used as a base for the painting. The wall down the staircase is Farrow & Ball Dead Salmon and these colours are also used downstairs together with brown leather, teak and bamboo so warmer, earthy tones were key in creating contrast in the painting.  Accents of moss/muddy green were introduced too - Dark green (Jewel Beetle by Little Greene) was used in the bathroom which is close by. The light fitting in the hall (I think you can just see it in the second photo) is black and brass. 

All of these elements were considered when starting the piece. Before starting I also created a moodboard & palette to give myself a reference to work from, and to inspire some of the shades and colours.

I was really happy with how this piece turned out, although it was a slow process and there was a lot of trial and error with composition - once I got there I think the piece looks super statement yet soft because of the colours chosen, and the client loves it. 

This will be packaged up with a lot of love and care and sent to its new home in Manchester, I'll hopefully get some pictures from the client and do an update with how it looks in its new home. I love seeing how the pieces sit in the interiors they are designed for. Watch this space!
