The door canvas

About a month ago, I found a door on the side of the road while I was walking home from school. I took a look at it, as it was fairly obvious it was being left out to be picked up by the garbage truck or something. One side was pale green and the other side was white. The handle had been torn out, there was a hole in the center where glass was supposed to go. and the paint was peeling. I took a look at the wood itself though, and it seemed to be in fairly fine shape. Since I don't have a door into my room, I convinced my dad to help me pick it up with the car. Afterschool, I've sanded it, filled in holes with wood putty and found glass and a new doorknob for it. Now, I have a blank 'canvas' of sorts and 40 $ worth of brown, blue, green, yellow, white and black paint.

What should I paint on the door?

Ygdrasil.

or failing that. something that blends into the room around it. be creative. let the design flow from the door out onto the walls a little if you want.

While the idea is interesting, I don't think a doorception is going to work here because of the glass window near the top of the door...

A Roadrunner-esque tunnel stretching off into the distance, or a continuation of the hallway that leads to the door.

Give each color a nr. then roll a dice, the nr. on the dice is the color you must use, paint it in only that color.
There, done.

The real question is, are you any good at painting in the first place? If not

Make it look like the surrounding walls, so no one can find the way out.

It has a window so that wont work, and choiku he is using it as a door for his room. I actually think the doorception idea would be cool, im not trolling.

So Tanis, what did you end up doing? A tree? XD

Branchscape on the side closest to my room, with a lake and balloon to represent bubbles and cloudscape as well. Working on doorception for the other side right now. It is proving difficult to make look right-- I will probably end up just making it look like a normal door from that side as I'm not that great of an artist.
