Thanks for the nice words!

Yes, it's a window. I covered it up with a piece of white acrylic which creates a nice clean background. Then in front of that is a piece of art that I actually found at the mall. It has a subtle movement to it (there's little tiki huts in it) so it makes you feel like you're in the tropics when you look at it. I still need to put matting on the cement wall (ugghhhhhhhh).

The "detailed" comment cracked me up. I'm about as detailed as they come. :wink:. I have a tiki art gallery down there too featuring work by people I either know or have met. Each piece of art has an artcard with a photo of the artist on it.

I think this is what you were squinting to see in the mirror...

I met Shag last December so gave him an art card, but I need to get a real quote from him instead of the one I made up... ha ha.

I'm continuing to work on the room and this fall will be painting a rather large scale mural above the stairs. I plan to do an underwater scene with a mermaid, tikis and more. I'm sure it'll end up being way too detailed.
