Not too long ago I wrote that I don't display art in my home and that it was a goal of mine to remedy that problem! Well, here is my first attempt at fixing that! I cleaned out my work table in my "office" and organized my art supplies and hung as many pieces as I could fit on the wall behind my work space! I've loved the Marx Brothers since I was a little kid so when my sister gifted these hand water colored prints of them to me for Christmas I was really excited! She painted them herself! The rest of the prints I got from classmates or craft fairs or I collected from places I can't remember and the giant paintbrush I got while in China. I made the little "abstract" blue and gold painting in the bottom right corner. The teapot was a gift from one of our Chinese graduate students and it's next to my little cork collection. I collect (unused) corks for when I make ceramic flasks or bottles. Since I'm a renter and I a) don't want to put tons of holes in my walls and b) don't own enough frames for all these prints, I bought decorated clothespins from the craft store and stuck them to the wall with double sided tape. It's not the most glamorous display, but it works for my situation and enables me to easily display the handiwork of some very creative friends and family members!
