Dee Man Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 We're in the middle of renovating our house and I'd love to have Jean-Michel Basquiat artwork everywhere but the wife says it won't go with the "shabby chic" look she's going for. What have you lot got on your walls? No flying ducks or B&M silver/gold attempts at 'modern art' please. 2 Quote

Silverton End Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 Not artwork as such, but I put some old OS maps in nice frames, areas/towns that are relevant to us. Also some artwork of our dog & a Gustav Klimt print along with one or two other music/band prints. 0 Quote
hearthammer Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 Have more of a Chinese/Japanese theme for my sitting room walls. They're 3d wooden pictures. Telling me i can only upload one at a time. Others to follow. 0 Quote
WhiteRoseKillie Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 Not much on display, other than an old photo of The Cross in Kilmarnock and my certificate for a brick at RP - walls are apparently for family photos. Plenty of albums with cracking art on them, mind - no matter what you think of Yes or Budgie, Roger Dean turned out some arresting images. Manchester smart-arses 10cc had a few Psygnosis covers as well: ..as did Pink Floyd*. I've loads more, and I've always been a big fan of Albums as a total package. When I first got DSOTM and found it came with a poster, the stickers with Venus and Mars by Wings (TBTBCHB), the posters in the White Album - all lovely wee additions. Custom inner sleeves, lyrics, fold-outs like the Giger cover on Brain Salad Surgery - a joy that is gone forever. I even have a copy of "In Through The Out Door" which has the "magic painting" inner sleeve as well as the plain brown bag outer cover. * Rumour had it that when you first slit the black plastic to get at the album, a whif of the odour of roasting flesh would be given off. 2 Quote

You never thought of buying album frames and sticking them on the walls? I've got a ton of vinyl with some tremendous artwork and I'd do that if the missus was having it. Hold on a minute, I've just realised I'm merely a lodger in my own home. 0 Quote
Granny Danger Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 Bought this online from Spain, I think the artist was from Valencia. It’s called Urban Landscape This is an original canvas from a Dundee artist Jack Morocco. Part of a series he did. I bought this on the edge of Red Square about 30 years ago for $20. Original watercolour, the local artists were fantastic. 3 Quote
expatowner Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 My partners daughter did a fine art degree and we have some of her poorer attempts at finger painting. I hate them all. 2 Quote
ArabianKnight Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 I'm in the process of boxing up for an inevitable eviction once the moritorium ends, as such it's only a few pieces left hanging. I've got stuff from Banksy, Mason Storm, John Doh, Pahnl, Catch22, Cherie Strong, Snub and many others. I'll post a few pics below. These pics are from the old house actually but it contains some really nice ones 0 Quote
