Well, here's another blog post about the end of 2006 or beginning of 2007 to add to the blog world. Cool.

It was a good holiday around our house. We all got lots of treats for Christmas and had a few days off to chill out, see our family and friends and get some things done around the condo.

Most notable of the items accomplished around the house is my "Wall of Rock." It's quite done yet, as I have a few more posters to frame, but it's started and that's a big deal. I think I looks great. Here's a photo:



All the posters are hand silk screened works of art that I have collected over the past few years. I have plenty more that will never find their way behind glass, but this is a start.

Here is the layout of the prints on the floor. I went through about a dozen different arrangements. Also in this are the prints that will be framed next - to see how it will all layout.



Here where I laid out the prints on the wall using newspaper cut to the size of the print. This was just to make sure the arrangement looked good on the wall and the spacing was good. Since I am going to floor to ceiling with this, I have some outlets to contend with. This helped me know where those would be in the overall layout.



On the wall now are these prints:

2003 Pearl Jam Brisbane - Ames Bros
2003 Pearl Jam Cincinnati - Ames Bros
2004 Pearl Jam Seattle (Showbox) - Brad Klausen
2004 Pearl Jam Toledo - Brad Klausen
2005 Cake - Newport, Ky - Small Print Stuidos
2006 Fiery Furnaces - Denver - Michael Michael Motorcycle
2006 Pearl Jam - Cincinnati - Brad Klausen

That's all for now. All I can say is there are some pretty cool things coming up in 2007. Can't wait.
