It is what I have throughout my log home. Looks great!
is there gyproc under it?
Some structures are built with material that have a high fire rating and don't need to be protected with drywall but that will be the exception not the rule.
Blue Jay; What is the stucture above the pine ceiling, size of rafters and type and thickness of sheeting?
Fredartic; Same question.
Keep in mind that codes change and anything done today should meet todays codes.

To be on the safe side you could drywall first and then cover it with pine. If the rafter are a 24" on center, 5/8 drywall would be required.
That looks bad with the black mold. It's funny how they say osb board is suppose to be mold resistant. It always seem to have the mold in a house. Have you been having allergy problems?
There is no fixing that, it needs to be taken out. Or sell it, but you could be sued!
As for the pine wood, i would mention a couple of things, 1) it can be heavy so your structure might not support it. I would chose a veneer. 2) Some people can have wood allergies too, something to think about before you wood your whole house.
