Interesting thread.

On my longest wall, I have a rustic metal sculpture piece depicting a classic Arizona desert scene with mountains, a rising sun and in the hills and foreground various sizes of saguaro cactus, about 25 of them in six sizes in a slightly 3D arrangement. While not a "picture", per se, it is art, I think it qualifies. I love this thing.

Over in the c ...[text shortened]... and it was a gift.

Nope, no photos, they're in my third bedroom that I've turned into an office.
Rusty didn't like it.

A canvas of Marfushivarv beach and lagoon, blown up from a panorama photo from my iPhone5 at the time.

Poppies : an impression by someone-or-other.

Some cheap but somewhat effective wall art depicting a UK beach with huts, bought from The Range retail outlet.

Lakka Bay, another canvas blow up of a photo take with my phone.

Some other stuff from where I live.

Two prints of Australian rural landscapes with no sign of human occupation. Two original oils, one of which was painted by a relative, the other by an unknown local artist - respectively 3 kookaburras and a single echidna. A very large Monet print which is probably the one I like least, mainly because Monet prints seem to be everywhere and I have no connection with that landscape.

We have a Robert Bateman print (called flying High) as the main piece in our humble art collection which also includes a few pieces by relatives and one wall is a rogues gallery of family members.
Does your rogues gallery include one of you being kicked out of anything?
Like school, a tavern or maybe even a country? 😆

I won't hang a Van Gogh picture on my wall for the same reason.

Edit: Well, perhaps with the exception of the Potato Eaters

I know what you mean .. but for 10 years I had "Van Gogh's Chair"
on a kitchen wall. It gave me pleasure almost every day.

In my living room, I have 5 pictures on my walls.

1. A French poster in a frame 'Jour de fete' (man with bicycle).
2. Panda in a bowtie.
3. 'On the promenade' by L.S Lowry. (My favourite artist).
4. Illustrated poem 'The owl and the pussy cat' (Edward Lear).
5. Two embroidered fish in a circular frame.
I just pictured you had a room covered in pussy cats.
