nice print: deconstructed origami

Clever print, ideal for the origami enthusiast. deryaakay: Standing Crane, 2009

11" x 9", Silkscreen on Paper; Edition of four

flat pets

These deliciously furless cardboard mascots by Chris Ratcliffe and Garudio Studiage border that absolutely useless/necessary realm. Yep, that means I want one.

I was instantly reminded of that SATC episode where Charlotte was given a flat baby. I'd spit in someone's face if I was handed a carboard infant but a cardboard kitty would be highly welcomed.

Upset Stomach 2007; Screenprint
As someone who loves cats, mice (alive,stuffed, ingested etc.), and suffers from nearly daily stomach aches, I'm finding this very cute.

I love: birds in beards

I occasionally joke with my small beardy man that he has birds in his facial hair. I think I'd really love it if it was true.

I'm impressed with the watercolor effect they achieved. I've never seen a 7 color silkscreen print look so light and effortless. This would be great for a baby's room.

("bird chat" I don't remember who makes this;I know I'm a horrible blogger.)

wall worthy?

I scored this free limited edition Shep Fairey screen print at his supertouch art basel party last week. Let me just tell you, people were getting pretty nasty once the tote bags that carried cds and large print tubes ran out. I actually had someone try to snatch one off my shoulder! Anyways, so I love getting free things more than anyone-and I especially love finding special and limited pieces. I was planning on getting this framed for our home office but my bf absolutely hates it. He thinks it's really tacky and that I only like it because it was free.
Thoughts?
Is this print worth displaying or just storing away for nostalgia sake?
