<p style="text-align: center;">May I just say, I love art?  Oh, my goodness, I LOVE art.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Today I&#8217;m featuring some fabulous watercolor painting art.. but I&#8217;ll get to that in a second. ;)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">We remodeled our home over a year ago and I have WAY too many bare walls (<a href="http://createdbychicks.com/2009/10/stunning-vinyl-wall-art/" target="_blank">a problem I mentioned earlier</a>).  Now I&#8217;m pondering a lot about paint colors and the look and feel I want our rooms to have.  The color palette I just can&#8217;t seem to escape is blues, teals and greens.  Every room seems like the perfect room for one of those tones.  I may just paint my whole house around those colors and have it be somewhat monochromatic (I&#8217;m love decorating monochromatically, using little accents of color to break it up).</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">This is the room I&#8217;m having the most trouble deciding on a paint color:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-508" title="great-room" src="http://createdbychicks.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/great-room.jpg" alt="great-room" width="360" height="466" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">It&#8217;s this gorgeous upper level great room with lovely, open vaulted ceilings and lots of natural light that comes in through all the windows and the glass french doors.  I LOVE this room; my family LOVES this room.  We spend 90% of our awake-time in this room.  It&#8217;s completely magical when it&#8217;s raining or snowing; all the windows make you feel like you&#8217;re in a tree house.  But, this has given me some decorating stress.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I want to keep the room really open and airy feeling.  The windows have no coverings, in many ways because I can&#8217;t decide what would be open enough to maintain the breezy feel in the room, but also give us some privacy.  I don&#8217;t want to choose a paint color that would tighten in the room at all, but I&#8217;m not big on pastel-type colors.  Also, since it&#8217;s a &#8220;family&#8221; room, I want it to be very comfortable in the color-scheme and decorating.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I recently came across an artist who has truly inspired me with a few ideas on what to do with this room.  Her work is beautiful and her name is <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/amaricemills" target="_blank">Amarice Mills</a>.  What do you think about using some of her creative prints in my big, open, white, boring room?  <em>(Click on pics to be redirected to item in her store)</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=20818205" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-509" title="red-umbrella-watercolor-painting" src="http://createdbychicks.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/il_430xN.53291290.jpg" alt="red-umbrella-watercolor-painting" width="344" height="332" /></a><strong>Rainy Day 3 &#8211; 5 x 7&#8243; &#8211; $10.00</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vl_other_2&amp;listing_id=20818310" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-510" title="umbrella-watercolor-painting" src="http://createdbychicks.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/il_430xN.41558816.jpg" alt="umbrella-watercolor-painting" width="430" height="225" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Rainy Day 4 &#8211; 5 x 7&#8243; &#8211; $10.00</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=20818422" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-512" title="purple-watercolor-umbrella" src="http://createdbychicks.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/il_430xN.41558895.jpg" alt="purple-watercolor-umbrella" width="344" height="256" /></a>Rainy Day 5 &#8211; 5 x 7&#8243; &#8211; $10.00</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Aren&#8217;t these watercolor paintings GORGEOUS?   The whimsical designs would make the room very comfortable.  I love the muted tones with the bright splashes of vibrant color.  I think these paintings also represent one of my favorite things to experience in this room: the weather.  But, I&#8217;m no interior decorator.  I do have an eye for design, but get really stumped at figuring all the details out.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>What paint color would YOU put under these prints to keep the room bright, fresh, open and comfortable?</strong> <em>(Feel free to offer any other decorating advice you may &#8211; I need all the help I can get).</em></p>
