We bought this.

We decided this holiday that we would buy a picture that reminded us of Cornwall. This wasn't quite what we had in mind but we love it -

Not from this shop - it's just the first link that came up on google.

Not everyone's cup of tea I know but we like that it's quite controversial. And definitely a talking point. What we think art should be. It is actually pixelated on the finger - that hasn't been done just for the website. She's going above the fireplace in the dining room.

We also liked this

But settled on Audrey. I might save up for the lighthouse one for Mick for xmas (I know he preferred that one really)

We still need a Cornish scene but we've decided something nice and bright but smaller (Audrey is big - 3ft x 3ft) to go in the bathroom. We are thinking about Cornwall in Feb/March - just the two of us so will perhaps look then (unless everywhere is closed!)

I love it Debih, and can just see it above your fireplace

Not my sort of thing, I'm not keen on people in paintings, but with art you definitely have to follow your heart

It's different - same as Di, not quite my taste and I wouldn't buy it for myself, but I do like it; got a very unusual effect. It certainly will be a conversation piece as you say

And I agree, I think Audrey is much nicer than the lighthouse
