That makes me wonder when money runs out from ordering all those expensive delivery meals, could I turn my wall into an art gallery and sell my paintings?

I now wish I have white walls because white goes with everything, and everyone I see on Zoom these days seems to have white walls or well-stocked bookcases behind them.
