Description
Fishing boats bob in the harbour and quaint cottages huddle round the quayside in Adelene Fletcher's charming view of a traditional fishing port in a palette of marine blues and greys. This framed canvas print is ready to hang on your wall. Adelene Fletcher has become famous for experimenting with new styles and techniques in her creation of specialist watercolour paintings. Initially, Fletcher’s background was in textile design and she originally graduated from the Manchester College of Art during the 50s. Her paintings are woven with her textile history and this can also be seen in her skilful use of colour. Adelene has received numerous awards and critical acclaim, exhibited in the Royal Institute of Painters and written and illustrated her own books. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love this Shoreline canvas for its calming colour palette and contemporary coastal vibe, making it a versatile piece that can breathe life into a variety of interiors. It works particularly well in seaside-inspired schemes, minimalist spaces, or modern living rooms. To style it effectively, consider pairing it with neutral furnishings and subtle textured accessories to let the artwork stand out. For practical tips, hang it at eye level in a central location or above a sofa to create a focal point, and use the colours within the piece-like blues and soft greys-to choose complementary soft furnishings or accent cushions. Its size makes it a statement piece, so ensure surrounding decor is kept simple to let the artwork do the talking.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
