I really love the canvas in your first photos and the colours in it. We don't have any artwork on our wall, mostly we have photographs and cross stitch pieces that my mother in law has made for us. We do have one print that I like and it's an old scene with Queenslanders and dirt streets with children playing, we've had it for quite a while, probably time to change I think:) xoCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11314373295390794669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828021706958060839.post-34820644330255202112011-06-19T18:56:43.180+08:002011-06-19T18:56:43.180+08:00Hi amanda!

I also love Japanese wood carved prints in our dining room. I enjoyed seeing and learning about the photos of your home and art pieces you display in different areas and the meanings of them!! The painting you have in your bedroom from Kanvas is gorgeous. I think it fits the image I have for your home and your style. I hope you'll have a great weekend!Chuzai Livinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01095913641167115662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828021706958060839.post-5203908582147714722011-06-17T21:31:58.400+08:002011-06-17T21:31:58.400+08:00Thank you Amanada!

I had a closer look at that canvas - the only name I can make out where the signature is is 'Stephen' - no initial or anything. We bought it from the Queen Victoria Building, it was at one end of the building on the 2nd or 3rd level and was from a souvenier/tourist type store. This particular canvas was hanging in the window.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14697932926715802541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828021706958060839.post-89529052795441508772011-06-17T19:54:39.958+08:002011-06-17T19:54:39.958+08:00Hello Amanda,

As a Sydney girl who'll be moving overseas in the next year or two, I'd love to get my hands on something like that.Sarahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828021706958060839.post-47543624073696660702011-06-17T18:50:39.946+08:002011-06-17T18:50:39.946+08:00I adore art work on walls.

Her colours are beautiful.<br />I have a few nice pieces of art but not nearly enough for my liking - I still have lots of wall space. I have some on my wishlist, but it's more of a "dream on" list! One day maybe. I'd love a big colourful abstract but have to convince Lyndon that it is in fact art!Sarah Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12869923063594203447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7828021706958060839.post-83189842040094505502011-06-17T10:28:32.508+08:002011-06-17T10:28:32.508+08:00I love your artwork Amanda.

I wonder what that says about me? Hmmmm...no self control perhaps? lol<br />I have 3 faves. My first is a gorgeous painting by Kay Keller which is now living in our reading room next to my second fave, a Catherine Campbell print. My third is hanging over the mantel of our kitchen. It's a beautiful teacup and saucer print by Paula at Sweet William.<br />I also have a lot of the girls paintings on show because they make me happy. God bless blu-tac!<br />Have a lovely weekend sweets xxxMon Alisa Designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17561496423539618016noreply@blogger.com
