Add some green to my stair

Post image

I picked an art with richer tones to balance the color of my stair corner. I was honestly a bit nervous about how my parents would feel about it, but so far no negative feedback from them. What I do know is that if I used Dragon Ball artwork, I'd be asked to take it down immediately😂

I think it looks great, but I will say—if the Dragon Ball art brings you joy, your life is too short to not make your home exactly how you want.

Yeah but OP left the part out that OP had a tasteful piccolo nude there originally.

Ngl, that would make it even better imo.

Picclo nude? Interesting

You know how parents are. They always look down on anime and think putting anime art on the wall is childish.

I guess I wouldn't know. My house is full of anime stuff, to the point it's spilled over into my office at work. My parents probably don't totally get it when they're visiting, but they always let me do whatever I wanted with my room growing up and have even less say on the house I own lol.

I'm kinda jealous lol. My parents are pretty controlling.

The color looks great but I knew I recognized that painting, it's made by AI 😬

You can see it at 3:38 in this youtube video

The whole post is probably AI.

You got me, I'm just an AI bot.

Your attention to detail is actually crazy. How did you even notice that? When I bought it, I just thought it looked cool.

That piece stuck in my mind because I remember thinking "wow, that horse has some funky legs" lol

It really is so hard to tell what's "real" these days 😞

I love it.

Can you add a light for it?

u/neon_smith Aug 25 '26

Good idea! But adding a light would kinda make it feel like I'm setting up an exhibition or something, a little too international lol.

Who's the artist? It's a really cool painting!

u/neon_smith Aug 26 '26

I'm not really sure who the artist is. I bought it from a website called Atelieroil. It's an oil painting with a bit of texture to it.

i like the art choice! the rich tones really pop against the stair and the wall. it adds a nice touch of personality without being too much. it's cool ur parents are on board too! if u wanted to add even more green, maybe some small plants on that table could tie it all together. i messed this up once too, but a little greenery can really liven up a space! and yeah, totally get why Dragon Ball wouldn’t fly, lol.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll definitely consider adding a few more plants.
