NORMAL LIFE: My First Piece... Of Art!

Bree has several pieces of art on the walls in what is, in effect, his apartment. I moved in nearly four years ago and have yet to really make my mark on what is an already sufficiently fill home. That was until today when a piece of art consisting of fifteen hand-painted wooden blocks arrived today.

The art is based on a photo I took of the Sibelius Monument, dedicated to the Finnish composer, Jean Sibelius (1865-1957). As the artist slowly positioned the pieces on the wall, my general dislike for all things arty lifted from me as if a stain was being rubbed away from a coffee table. What do you think?
