So, I got this area sort of set up, but I'm probably not finished. It doesn't look quite right to me yet. So far, I like the chair and the bookcase next to each other. I think I like the lamp and the by-color book arrangement. Though, in general, I don't like bookcases completely full of books. I prefer the books broken up with other stuff, so I might change this up a little. I like the old picture of my dad, but I don't like the frame anymore. The picture is sort of stuck to the glass. Not sure how that happened.
And I like the top part. Brachiosaurus got painted pink. I don't think pink is any less realistic than his former bright green. He could have been pink. If you can't prove it wasn't then it could have been. That's just science. He is strolling past the lovely beach vista of my Salvation Army painting, approaching my Crooke radiometer. Though in this position, the radiometer never really gets direct sunlight. Ergo, it never spins. Sigh. You can't have everything, I guess.
I think wall art is in order next. Any suggestions?
