You would do well in the world of modern art.

Me too; I like big thick gnarled trees the most though. (And also my purse was made to look like a tree face; it frightens small children on a fairly regular basis.) And birch trees.

For my birthday I'm planning on making everyone help me paint my current cow skull while we drink tequila and watch horror movies, so I kind of have to be prepared for the possibility of glitter and penises.

Pretty much how I feel whenever I go to Hillcrest.

Well we're still trying to figure out how to open the crate. I think he may be dead.

You can only hope not.

Mind you, the O'Byrnes were kings of Wicklow, one of our counties, so, not a bad name really. Annoying how many times I get called "Mister O'Brien."

You're really gonna upset Occulthawk, you know.

With a name like Herb(ivore) he's liable to get beaten up by the other sharks. A name like Lance or Bull, now...

You'd be able to paint all the members of Coldplay on that skull??

That wallet sounds amazing. And there's something special about birch trees in autumn colors. If I could paint worth a damn (I can't), I'd do some birch tree forest related stuff for sure.

Somewhat close to your wallet, my previous debit card had silhouets of naked branches against a night sky printed on it. The bank dropped that feature, sadly, so my new card is plain and boring.

No I mean the designs on the paper are going off the paper.

**Frownland** · 02-02-2018, 03:19 PM

I think that's a frame.

I found removable (no glue!) birch tree wallpaper online recently and it looked so pretty; may have to get it. Something like that would look amazing in a bedroom. (There was a greyish+beige version and a purple and brown version I think)

My bank got rid of the fun card options too :c

Here's the purse (best picture I have of it unfortunately-- it's in storage so I can't take a better one)

Then you just need to fill your bed with dead leaves and the look is complete!

The purse looks very Jim Henson-esque to me, at least at this resolution. Neat.
