Odd but Comfortable: Mother's Perspective on the Main House

Welcome to the Main House.....

And I do use the porch, when the weather is warm enough....

Tobey and I greet you....On a chillier day....

Come inside to the first of two very comfortable living areas.... 

Looks pretty comfortable, so why have there been complaints about the decor?  Why was a  print by the famous artist Diego Rivera taken down in the Anna Gamz room and turned face forward?

SHOCKING, I tell you!!  A nude back!!!

However, before we take a closer look at the artwork, let's look a bit more inside the house.

 

Hmmm.... Day of the Dead theme emerging over the stove....

High heels aren't usually comfortable, but turns out this chair is a nice fit for the human body....Mother quite liked it.

BUT   the skeleton taking up another chair in the living room was not wanted (except by me).  Alex claimed we needed the chair, which I thought was a rather lame

excuse, but Mother was adamant:  Skeletons are morbid!!  So off it went to the appropriately named "Goth Room."

However, not all the bedrooms would be comfortable for vampires and ghouls.  Mother stayed in the one below...

the infamous "Nude with Calla Lilies" room, yet somehow, Mother managed to sleep peacefully...

And Alex's room.....

                       

               

                                              However, some of the art might be NSFW
                        

In my bedroom (I stayed in the house and gave my abode to Susie and Harry)

                                        

In the back entry way

                                                                   

                       And to greet you in the living room...

   Why, then, was a nude back so offensive?????
                              

Who is responsible for this outrage?  Meet my landlady...

Given the name Susan at birth, by parents who obviously didn't see into her future, she is now Soleil or Zia, both referring to the sun.  Her partner is Dragon.  No idea as to his birth name.  Notice the heavy boots she's wearing, though you can't see the very practical pants under her painting dress.  Twice that I've seen Dragon, he was wearing skirts; he has the legs and the tush for it.  

The Air BnB site for the Bisbee House of Art and Mirrors makes quite clear that a renter will not be stepping into country cottage chic:

                         

Our house is filled with ethnic and erotic art and, of course, mirrors!

 The main house is filled with art, photographs and crafts. Some by local artists and also Spiritual, ethnic, erotic and kinky.

We are LGBTQ friendly and welcome medical Marijuana use.

Anais Nin room

The king sized bed (big enough for 3) is under the skylight.( Tobey and I are in this bed for 3!)

Wouldn't those descriptions and statements offer some....clues....that one is not stepping into Mayberry?  Or these visuals...

                         

When I asked Soleil and Dragon about it, they said that potential renters looked at the price of a room, and nothing else.  According to Soleil, the prices are very competitive and that's all the people care about...until they get there.  Deal with it people!!  Another sign on the house.....

                                           

Now we come to the last day, when the skeleton was returned to its rightful location...

                                                     

Harry ignoring it.....

And Harry saying that Susie had finally found someone who truly appreciates her!!!

And they say goodbye while I remain in ....
