Wallpaper - Bits of Life on Canvas

Created by artist Jeanette Vertentes, our Bits of Life on Canvas wallpaper brings the vibrant energy of an expressive abstract oil painting onto the wall. What we particularly like about this design is the interplay between dense, saturated brushstrokes and a luminous vertical channel of light drifting down the center. Layers of deep indigo, teal, emerald, and violet anchor the sides, while soft blush pinks, warm corals, and sunny yellows glow through the middle like sunlight playing over water. Each of our mural wallpapers is made to measure to fit your exact wall dimensions, printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

Because of its painterly depth and expansive visual scale, we see this design working beautifully across an uninterrupted main wall in a living room. Placing it behind a low sofa gives the brushwork space to breathe while turning the seating area into an artistic focal point. We also love this wall mural in a dedicated home studio or reading room, where the balance of rich jewel tones and soft pastel highlights brings a creative, expressive atmosphere without overwhelming the space. In rooms with generous natural light, the subtle shifts between the turquoise, lilac, and pale yellow tones become especially distinct.

Styling it

To let the dynamic painterly texture of the wallpaper lead the interior, we suggest keeping larger surrounding furniture relatively quiet in form. Low-profile seating in neutral textured upholstery, such as warm cream, oat, or charcoal, grounds the room without competing with the colorful composition.

For accents and secondary pieces, we like drawing out the deeper tones through dark wood finishes or deep indigo and bottle-green ceramics. Simple modern silhouettes with clean lines provide a grounding contrast to the fluid, impressionistic energy of the wall mural.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper features a rich palette of deep navy, violet, turquoise, and moss green, balanced by luminous shades of blush pink, coral, creamy white, and soft yellow.

When choosing paint colors for adjoining walls and woodwork, we recommend quiet off-whites with a warm undertone or soft muted greiges to keep the room bright and balanced. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, pulling a deep navy, petrol blue, or dark forest green directly from the outer brushstrokes onto adjacent trim creates an elegant, cohesive frame for the design.
