Decorating walls...at the studio: The albatros and the unusable

If you paint it on the wall, it is very hard to move to the gallery. If you coat sprayfoam in green paint and glitter, you'll wind up with an object usable only as an example of going too far(lucky charms brain).

Decorating walls...at the studio: Mixed bag above the paint table

Decorating walls...at the studio: Introduction

When I used to have an apartment, I hated putting things on the walls. Now that I don't I enjoy that someone else has. I can't figure out what I would hang on my own walls. I don't really ever want something in a way that would mean toting it home and hanging in on my wall.
I've been in my studio over five years now. I have some things on the wall, and I took some photos today of what, over five years,has made it's way to the wall and stayed....beyond paintings, of course.
