My mom is redoing a painting to hang in the living room and it looks awful?

It's basically a brown, green, and orange painting of swirls and stuff and looked boring and alright hanging in the living room already, but we both agreed to bring more red into the house to warm it up a bit. So we added red pillows to chocolate brown couches... kinda ugly ones at that but it was tolerable. Now she thinks its a good idea to stick red and fuzzy scarf making fabric all over the damn picture and now shes contemplating sticking on grey and black leopard print fabric on the brown, orange and green painting that already has red twine all over it. I told her what I think and she just thinks I have no artistic vision, but artistic vision has a lot to do with knowing a pile of crap when you see it. Only someone who smoked a tonne of weed would find the painting alluring, and I know being off your face is interconnected with creating good art, but THIS is the exception. What can I do? I already told her what I thought, already said just getting a new painting with red in it would work, but the fractured artist inside of her is bursting at the seams with self expression. Im not usually concerned with decorations, but I don't want to have to confront the ridiculousness of the picture every time I enter the living room. In one simple word... it's just gay. Really, super duper uber gay. Anything I can do? Anything at all?
