After 0147, I thought it may look nice in my lounge room, but the colours were wrong. Easily fixed! The previous print, Van Gogh’s cornfield, had faded and looked drab, but was in a very large frame that was looking for a new print.
Another print, change the flowers to blue and orange to match the cushions, re-photograph and design a poster. Off to the printers and (Bob’s your uncle) one larger poster size print later, the room was transformed.
I like this colour sachem and have plans for more.
