Which painting goes in a bedroom, above the bed or opposite it? The bedroom is the one room where a painting is the last thing you see at night and the first in the morning. So here you choose it by the state it holds, and only then by the colour of the curtains.
There are states you do not have to enter: they are already waiting for you.
Above the bed or opposite it. Above the headboard, the painting is seen by whoever walks into the room. Opposite the bed, you see it yourself, every morning. For that place choose a calm work: sea, sky, air, soft light.
Size. Above a bed a painting looks whole at about two thirds of the headboard's width. For a 160 cm bed that is about a metre across.
Colour. Warm pink and peach tones relax and slow you down; blues even out the breath. Leave sharp contrast to the living room: it wakes you up, and a bedroom needs the opposite.
Warm. Languor, canvas 120 × 90 cm, 50,000 ₽: pink and peach tones like evening light at home. A horizon, sky, the soft movement of waves, and, if you look longer, faint silhouettes of birds.
Narrow, for a small headboard or a chest of drawers. Just a Pleasure, 75 × 35 cm, bronze frame, 40,000 ₽: a view of the shore from above, the rhythm of the waves and two people walking along the water, holding hands.
Light and airy. Ease of the Way, 120 × 100 cm, aluminium and silver, 90,000 ₽: a little girl running either across the water or among the clouds, with gloss in places.
For those who love white. Observers of Light, canvas 100 × 90 cm, oil, 90,000 ₽: an adult and a child walk across the water hand in hand, and the light is born between them.
In the evening the texture lives by the bedside lamp. The relief casts soft shadows, and by night the painting is different from what it was by day.
Send a photo of the wall above the bed and its width, and I will suggest which work would sound right there. Say so before it is packed, and the painting will arrive ready to go on the wall.
