apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I love it. My grandfather used to keep a pin-up/nudie calendar from the 50's in his garage. It always made me feel a little weird, but now, I wish I had one of those calendars.

CORRECTION: to be in a state of total bliss.

I wanted correct that before swerve attacks.

I think the painting was meant to be vertical; it would be great on the inside of the closet door.

Sentiment aside, this is a BAD painting.

Hmm, the shadows seem to imply a horizontal layout. But I could see how it could work vertically too. (sorry about previous incorrect log-in name)

this bedroom is awesome. definitely sets the mood for, well, you know.

I like the matching bong next to the bed.. was that your grandfather's too?

I think the painting should be vertical too. That position of the lady in the painting looks incredibly awkward/impossible.

Also, I realize it's a painting, but in that position her bosoms wouldn't be so...um...upward. And maybe the shadows are supposed to be from her head being tilted backward...?

Otherwise, I think it's kind of cute!

If you think this painting is bad you should see others in the series, I had to give them away because they were just too tacky. Yes, it is meant to be vertical but the painter signed it on the horizontal...and my grandfather preferred to hang it that way.

Pants, were talking about the carafe?

that lady looks like jesus in the face. :/

My grandfather also has nude paintings! Thankfully he is still with us, but when he no longer is I hope to get one of them. They're kitschy, but in the best way and I would be proud to hang one.

She looks like she's in agony. Cool that it was your grampa's though.

Nothing like wishing I could afford a Mel Ramos painting - would blow this one away! I'm dying to find a Mel Ramos at a garage sale for nothing. it would be like winning the lottery to me. I've always wanted to hang something naughty up in my bedroom!

You have got to change the position of the painting. It has to be vertical. Her legs are all wrong.

i love the duvet cover ~ anyone know where it is from??
