NEW ART!Monday, December 19, 2011
I'm always pumped when I get some new work to hang on my walls.  I may have posted this before, but I scooped up one of Aaron Horkey's letterpress prints a while back and I finally got around to framing it.  Normally I don't use a matte this huge, but this little gem called for it. The print also came with this amazing silkscreened certificate of authenticity that I almost like more than the actual letterpress print ha!  I mean, look at the detail on this thing! You know I had to frame that too.. 

And while I was at it, I framed a sweet original drawing of a feather that my friend Jessamyn did!  This feather may actually make an appearance at Tank Theory.. more on that later..
