Adding an oil drill to a room that is mostly decorated in warm neutral tones can yield a welcome change — find a piece on 1stDibs that incorporates elements of gray, brown, beige, purple and more. There have been many interesting oil drill examples over the years, but those made by Allan Skriloff, Geoff Kuzara, Oscar Florianus Bluemner, Shepard Fairey and Judy Mackey are often thought to be among the most thought-provoking.
