Old School

As I mentioned in the previous post, I started picking up some art and just HAD to hang it up. So I had them all matted and framed & hung them in a small studio apartment I had at the time.

Because they were all pencil/partially-or-fully-inked on white paper, I felt that a simple black matting with a silver frame would work best.

This is the result:

I know it's not the greatest picture, but it worked at the time. I didn't have a boatload of space and that was really the only wall that it seemed to have the space for everything and it not seem cluttered. So that's what I ended up with. Sorry for the crappy photo. I had to dig this out of the dust bin of the internet to even find any record of my first attempt at using comic art to decorate beyond hanging posters when I was 11.

Now that I've had my house for a little while and am figuring out this decorating thing a little better and coming up with new ways to display (read: show off) my geekdom, I'm getting better ideas and I've also accumulated more things that deserve to be shown off.

Soon, I'll start posting pictures of what I've done so far as well as the slow evolution of the changes I'm making to decorating with comic art.
