Modern Mountains

Lately I've been going nuts over redecorating my apartment (a hard task to do without being able to paint the walls, remove hardware, or replace light fixtures!) Last week I found a great mid-century marble coffee table with beechwood legs and matching side table for only $250. I'll post photos soon. But all of this leads me to my next problem, art. Bare white walls feel like a doctor's waiting room and everyone says putting up tons of personal photos is a designing no-no.
Not that I listened to that... there is still a bookcase here scattered with blurry travel photos taken by strangers asked to hold the camera and were in a hurry themselves.

Back to art. I hope to collage the wall behind my sofa with an eclectic mix of art and photos. While brainstorming on what kind of art I wanted to buy, I decided to make some of it myself since I had such a specific idea of what I wanted. What resulted is a new series of oil paintings called 'Modern Mountains.' Right now I'm working on one giant painting, but I also made a couple of smaller 6x8" panels as a study of color for the series that I've listed on Etsy here.
