awesome new art.


Meet the newest member of our family, Chief.

Isn't he awesome? 
We just snatched up one of our friend's screen prints. Remember Ben's art opening (seen here)?

Danny and I love all of Ben's prints but ultimately decided on "Chief" 
because Danny's dad B-Joe worked on the railroad for 10 years.

When we bought Chief, the artist gave us a few tid-bits about the print. Here's what he said:
-I wanted to do an train engineer for my Dad, who has always been a huge train nut! He has tons
 of electric train sets, including one that takes up my parents entire basement! Crazy.
-Chief is comprised of roughly 237 shapes.
-Chief is the second 6-color print. Including overlapping colors, there are a total of 12 colors created.
