    Not a big fan of any of them. The first is especially ugly.

    Wow! Tough room!

    I love most the them; especially the bold use of color in the first one. Sorry. Not trying to be difficult; I really like it. Different strokes...

    quiltmaster - I agree with you, no reason to think you are being difficult. I think it's an interesting pop of color.

    I couldn't pull it off but it makes me think of a citrus orchard with limes, oranges and lemons all together. That back wall has an organic wood tone quality though it's not wood.

    Perhaps I am just an odd sort. Wouldn't be the first time people thought that of me.
