Reverie
Product Details
Story: Reverie draws on visual impressions from my travels, the flickers of alizarin crimson are like poppies in the distance with the changing light of southern France, or the quiet stillness of the Spanish coastline, and the warmth of Mediterranean skies. It’s an imagined abstract landscape shaped by my memory and emotion, where colour becomes a reflection of place and feeling.

Artist
Cerise Washington
Cerise Washington is a British artist celebrated for her painterly abstraction inspired by J.M.W. Turner’s landscapes. Her work, often nodding to Impressionism, is defined by expressive impasto brushwork, a subtle yet varied use of colour, and an emphasis on atmospheric light. Through layered pigments and intuitive mark-making, she captures depth, movement, and emotion with a distinctive sense of timelessness.
After earning a degree in Graphic Design and a successful career as an Art Director in the Middle East, Cerise returned to London to study Contemporary Art at Christie’s. Her fascination with Turner continues to inform her practice, which has been exhibited internationally — including at the World Trade Centre in Dubai, where her paintings were presented to His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, as well as in Covent Garden, Oxford, Wimbledon, and Tooting. Her work has been described as “monumental” and “masterfully communicating a historic feel” due to her sensitivity to light and form.
Over the past 15 years, Cerise has collaborated with interior designers in the UK, the Middle East, and the U.S., creating bespoke works for luxury interiors. Her art has been commissioned by celebrities and CEOs, and is held in private collections and homes across Dubai, Paris, America, and London. Her practice extends across canvas, silk, and now upholstery fabrics, tailored to each client’s aesthetic vision.
Cerise’s work has been featured in international publications including Yachting Insider Magazine, Elle Decor Middle East, and Art and Museum Magazine, and she has been invited to share her artistic journey on several podcasts.
