Picture panels

Having cancelled the wallpaper I decided to look more carefully at the Erte pictures I have.

They are so beautiful. This one and the next would look lovely in the Work Room. Kirscha is a designer/seamstress after all. I still want to stick with the black and gold colour scheme even though these are more sublte.

I especially love the background colour on this. It's more golden yellow in RL.

This is the one that inspired me. They could be framed and then used as large panels on the walls and paint the walls with sponge effects. If I paint the whole room white and then sponge onto it, I could bring the light and shade of various colours and draw out the colours of the pictures.

This could be used too. They would work well together. I have 3 walls to play with, but want to put the curtains on one. It's going to be a tough choice.

I thought this would look good in the Dining Room with the Egyptian theme.

Love the elegance and colours in this one.

The russets and reds go well with the Egyptian paper. I was going to have deep yellow as the main colour, but I'm leaning toward the deep red now, but still keeping the background ocre/mustard.

These are such different colours for me. I love cool colours, purple, pink and turquoise, but this is Kirscha's house and she has very different tastes and ideas.

I feel the Erte art will dominate as a  theme throughout. There is so much available too.

Although I was very disappointed about the wallpapers, I think I've found a workable solution. Those that I'll used can be framed and the walls painted in hues to compliment. They Art Deco period saw a lot of wall panels so it would still capture the age. It's just so much more work. I'd rather get it right and then I'll be so happy to play and take huge amounts of photos.

So panelling is the way forward, methinks.
