I remember seeing this photo years ago in my university Lithography class. Someone had brought in a book on Edie Sedgwick and this photo was included. The original source for the photo was from Vogue Magazine in a 1965 article about "Youthquakers". The moment I saw this image made me want my own home so that I could draw on the wall too! Later I discovered that the drawing was actually on paper tacked to the wall, but in the black and white photo it looked as if it was drawn directly on the wall - which I think is a more interesting idea.
While I still don’t quite have the right wall to create a drawing so splendid, I have painted a mural inspired by Matisse's "The Goldfish” painting on the wall of one of my bathrooms. Inspiration for Art for your home can come from many places.

PS, love the leather rhino that Edie is doing an arabesque on!

will you please tell me where you discovered Edie's horse drawing was made on paper, not directly on the wall?
