Susi Bellamy's Design Tips
- Inspiration. Inspirations for my design come largely from my time living in Florence and I continue to experiment with marbling and mark-making in my art. The abstract designs often come from a small moment in the painting.
- Life’s too short. Life's too short to hold back on expressing yourself in your home! Even if you choose a neutral backdrop then enjoy playing with colourful upholstery and original art.
- Mix mediums. I love showcasing art on patterned wallpaper. And even on my plain walls, I enjoy creating a mixed hang of different mediums and sizes. Framing is integral to creating a harmonious interior look - play with scale and finish.
