Ceramic Flower Succulent Blue 6

I never thought I'd be the type to obsess over what to hang on a wall, but here I was, completely enamored with a ceramic flower that looked like it had been plucked from the fever dream of a color-blind mermaid.

As I hung it on the wall, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride. Here I was, a man who once thought art was limited to dogs playing poker, now the proud owner of a ceramic flower that could probably be seen from space. It was garish, it was bold, and it was absolutely perfect. "You know," I told her, "some people might say it's just a glorified dinner plate. But to me, it's a masterpiece.
