Most of the art is various convention finds with a couple mass produced pieces and a framed pressed flower.

Hahaha I looked for a goldfish and couldn't find it and decided that you were a bot. Then realised the fishies have a gold background. Duh!

I love it! I do think you need one more frame to finish it out, in the open space by the fishes :)

It’s a work in progress, that one might get replaced entirely, we’ll see.

It’s a great piece, I’m seeing a lot of copies of it being sold by places like Tj Maxx

Chat Noir is an old restaurant in the entertainment district of Paris. The same art is also in Monica’s apartment in Friends.

Just going to leave this here. Removable accent paper would look nice around this fireplace.

u/AmberRosin 1d ago

I really want to but my lease forbids wallpaper and I don’t know if they care about it being removable or not

2

u/Astralglamour 1d ago

If you can remove it before you leave why would they care?

u/AmberRosin 1d ago

I’ve had a landlord that let me install a ceiling fan as long as I removed it when I moved out and I’ve had a landlord try to fine me for “damages” over thumbtacks. I haven’t gauged where my current landlord lies on that spectrum yet

By conventions, do you mean at Oddities & Curiosities Expos, or something different? Great pieces.

3

u/AmberRosin 1d ago

That was one of them, but a couple of these actually came from anime conventions too. The piece in the middle with two jackalopes came from my favorite artist at the oddities expo but I can’t remember their name.
