It is dark, bold and artsy so fait accompli! That gorgeous painting is such a strong statement piece that what would be overly bold in some homes, works perfectly in yours. Well done.

I think it all looks awesome, Friday. You have such a creative vision, it always inspires me.

The room looked great before, but these changes take it to another level. The wallpaper is perfect!

That light! I had to keep looking at it to see how it was the same! Amazing.

@nekotish, @Jilly Thanks! I was most uncertain about the blue mantel. So you think the blue works? The light was very simple after I removed the shade.

It looks great! Can we see the bed?

I love the blue!

@Tina Marie

Here is the bed. This is an old photo. I changed the curtains to match the others.

The blue mantel works very well in your space. You needed something strong to ground that painting and you nailed it IMHO!

@nekotish, @Jilly Sometimes I second guess myself. I definitely wanted a solid blue statement so that the room would compliment my blue bathroom. It is not the exact same color but it coordinates. The mantel and chandelier were a complete afterthought after I had completed the wallpaper. You have restored my confidence ;-) TY

I'm having trouble with the blue. I see an ivory mantel as picking up what's already there. I love the individual pieces....the artwork is amazing...as is the swing arm wall mounted lamp next to the bed...love the zebra rug...the wall paper....the shelving...as individual elements. I'm no expert...so I wouldn't put any weight on my observations.

Thanks! @User An ivory mantel and light fixture would look something like this. I was looking for a way to bring blue into the mix because my bathroom is blue and there is basically no blue in my room. I wanted something a little funkier than ivory.

This particular blue is very shimmery. I initially painted it a royal blue and then added several coats of a clear gloss medium mixed with a duo-chrome powder that is blue/green. Pearl Ex. It is shimmery and very reflective which would likely make you dislike it even more! The photos really don't show the duo-chrome and reflective nature of the paint.

Sorry...I thought the wall to the left was ivory....my monitor....? The blue just seems sudden...and cloud like...no connection...the bathroom I do remember....but...was stand alone...as I recall...

I love your artistic style!

In a word, FABULOUS!

Your artistic vision is bold, strong, unafraid. The end result speaks for itself. You've done a perfect job of bringing an extra jolt of life to the space. I wouldn't change a thing.

Wow, what a cool room! I envy your artistic ability to liven up a room. The painting needed that cast of supporting elements and you put it together perfectly.

@roarah Thanks!

@Ida Claire If I am ever in need of a spokesperson I know who to call. Bold, strong, unafraid. You make me sound so fierce! TY!

@OutsidePlaying I am amazed at what a difference this one wall has made. Thank you! It has changed the feel of the space. Next, I am going to either venture out into the hallway or the laundry room.
