Wow. I have art envy--you have so many beautiful things I don't know where to start commenting (but I agree that that wall paper has to go, especially that floral pattern. It's jarring, it's so bad.) I love the kimono sleeves, and the sakura painting is gorgeous, and I love the pencil drawing of Inu-Yasha. And the painting of Sesshoumaru. And the boomerangs. And the water colors. It's all so lovely!
I love art. We have a lot of it in our apartment, and more that we haven't put up for lack of space and money for framing. Most of our framed-art are prints, though--I only have a few original pieces. We have a lot of non-framed art, though--pottery, baskets, blown glass, and of course leather masks and dragon plaques.
I am not much of an artist, but it makes sense to me for an artist to decorate her home with more than her own art. After all, your art is not only a reflection of your tastes, but it's also an inspiration too. To have only your own art in your house would be kind of like expecting an author to only own books she had written.
