Not sure if I'd go authentic and do the cutouts or just paint the shapes directly. Either way I'd need something heavy-ish to mount on. It seems a little crazy.
I haven't painted in forever but back in high school the big decision was conservatory auditions, design school portfolio, or... psychology degree. You can all snigger, go ahead. I went with the psychology plan and then dropped out and transfered to a conservatory.

Until recently, every place I lived was as bare as a bus stop, so I can relate to that part.
My house has now started to look like a person lives here. It feels nice enough that I don't feel the ground shifting under my feet, a constant my entire life.
