Ooohh art! I love it!!! Try painting. Just go to an art store and get a basic kit of paints (get acrylic as oils are a bit hard and quite stinky!). Get 2-3 brushes, a palette, and some canvas paper or a stretched canvas if you'd prefer).
Do abstract if you want. It doesn't have to be anything realistic. Here's a painting I did and it's now in my dining room.
It was easy. Just use low-tac tape and divide a canvas into 4 sections. Paint them in different colours. The images are scanned from design magazines and then pasted on with collage glue. I did it at a friend's place in 2 hours and I love it! She did one too using scanned B&W images from her trip to Europe.
