Ugh those are so dated. I had to remove one in a house I bought 5 years ago...could not even give it away on Facebook Buy Nothing!


Are you always this unkind or are you just having a bad day?

Do you move the monk around and put him in places where he’ll startle people?

I have too many to pick...hence why we have 3 houses. One in the US, one in Paris, and one in Germany.

I have a cool stained glass 6-pane window that I bought at Eastern Market years ago. Hung it on my family room wall and everyone compliments it.

A painting of 3 llamas that my oldest got me for my most recent birthday.

He has 2 younger siblings.

We have all kinds of things we've picked up that I love but I'm always partial to our octopus print from this series, the colors exactly match my William Morris Blackthorn curtains

I have several inherited old oil paintings that I love - they are valuable but not like the Picasso etc… original art adds so much to a home.

Cool. I have a Peter Kingston, John Olsen, Guy Warren, Wendy Sharpe, and several less-well-known Australian painters.


My FIL was a physician and treated Guy. We have several works of his, along with some Downings, Watts, Forbes, and a bunch of Zupans, though we dont display those. Thank God for the country house or we'd be out of wall space!


Oh gag me. 🤮


Gag yourself.

A piece I made myself. I’m an artist and I have two pieces I made that I just love. And one is a permanent installation so it will stay when I move. Mostly everything else I give away or sell.

A beautiful and delicate bronze sculpture of a stag that a kind of crazy artist friend of ours made for us.

If the country home is empty for long periods, make sure it still has the right temperature and humidity ranges for your paintings.
