Nerd Art

My husband and I recently acquired some awesome artwork to decorate our newly finished downstairs.  Because we are nerds (hence the blog), we decided to decorate the downstairs in the fashion that WE like instead of what we see when most people decorate their homes.  To start off the collection, we decided to order some art by James Hance. He is very talented at taking two themes and meshing them together for some awesome results.  We particularly like The Dark Starry Knight and "Till Luke Said...".  The first one manages to take Van Gogh painting that every college girl seems to have in her dorm/apartment and makes it awesome.  The second is a much more subtle depiction of a childhood favorite ("Where the Wild Things Are") with a Star Wars twist. In fact, it is so subtle that my grandmother said she loved it but couldn't see the Star Wars in it when I pointed out what it was.  I love Hance's art in general and highly recommend his work.  To boot, it wasn't even super expensive.  We spent three times as much framing The Dark Starry Knight as we did buying the print!

I would include uploads of the prints, but it would be better to just click on the link above and enjoy perusing the site. Enjoy!
