Rubens Motherwell which reminds me of kindergarten art and it probably would to most guests,
Rubens, I had never heard of Motherwell, thanks for mentioning it! Interesting that Motherwell reminds you of kindergarten, your kindergarten must have been much fancier than mine!! 😁
but then again I am an uncultured philistine (at least in visual arts) so don't listen to me.
No, no, don't say that! I am pretty ignorant about art as well (for evidence, note that I hadn't heard of Motherwell before, so...). Like most of us, I know a little bit about the things I like and know almost nothing about anything else. And that's ok.
But what I do know is that it can be hard to visualize these things, and I don't want to spend a bunch of money only to decide that I don't like it. And getting advice from other is very helpful to me (even if I reject some of it!) Hence this thread.
And you don't decorate your room for the guests, you do it for yourself !
This is a very good point! But at the same time, I don't want people to come over and think "oh what a stupid way to decorate the room" ... so it's a hard balance to strike.
@twocats yes, that black and white one is definitely aggressive... 😅
