I've seen one or two. When they were first popular I remember thinking they were lame and the worst ersatz art
We had one in the lounge room growing up. When I went to other peoples houses they had Sara Moons that looked different to ours. I was very confused as a kid.
Where I grew up it was either Pierrot clown pictures, shopping centre artist Australian landscapes or bar room mirrors lol.
My mother put up van Gogh and Fred McCubbin prints. In my bedroom I would hang up pictures I drew myself, mostly cartoon characters
My bedroom was a melange of maps, van Gogh and Monet prints, whatever heavy metal bands I liked at the time, political posters I made and a picture or two of Johnny Depp. Cringes
Am listening to Faust ballet. It's charming.
