    I'd like to join group 2 with 'MODERN ART in turquoise and chocolate brown' as my theme.

    These will be framed in my bedroom (at the new house, yippee!) so I'm looking for classic patterns of argyle, stripes, circles, swirls, etc. as well as great little Abstract wonders.

    Don't overcomplicate them, they can be well-planned grids of color (like Piet Mondrian), or something more loose and abstract, like Miro or Kandinsky. Or just go at it in your own style!
     
    Could I be in group 6 please...hand drawn...VIOLIN (instrument itself or someone playing). Thank you!!!
