Art Mood: Larissa Blake

INTERIOR STYLIST ALEXANDRA CARTER CREATES LOOKS FOR FOUR ARTWORKS WITH PERSONALITY, MOOD AND ENERGY.

/ This blue rug was chosen as the hero piece to pull out the colour in Larissa’s painting. As the artwork is so powerful, I wanted all of the pieces in this space to have an impact also. The carefully selected ceramics, one-off hand painted vases and the curve of the chair contrast to the lines of the painting. /
