All of them. I would hang them a bit apart from each other. <BR/><BR/>You mention these are on card. I've also done this and wondered what to do. You can have them mounted or mount them yourself to archival board and then mount them to a wood block if you don't want frames.The Artful Eyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00004135813140464018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-614658792212403547.post-11190978831524249862008-02-25T05:57:00.000-08:002008-02-25T05:57:00.000-08:00I agree with Mick and I also prefer two.His coomen...I agree with Mick and I also prefer two.<BR/>His cooment re standing behind the work is critical.<BR/><BR/>Unbridled artistic honesty (doubt) works best with hand granades.<BR/><BR/>Something that I always consider also is permamence of the work - something that will not fall apart or fade.

I see these mounted somehow on wire frames and suspended, maybe even a mobile, or some other not flat dimension.

A...I like them very much Lisa, in any combination. As for me, if I were buying them, I would display them seperatly, enough far apart, oh say an inch or so, so that the feeling of "breaking", of fragility seems more evident, and yet they are as a whole. On the framing bit...don't rightly know on that one. Really, I don't much like frames, gots to have them some times I know, but when needed I'm always faced with the same dilema as you. Oh, and the "flattening" of them...need they be "too" flat? I can't see them "in person" now, true, but I'd think that the slightly "raised" quality to them might lend itself well to the subject. Bravo! You're on such a creative roll lately, I'm impressed!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-614658792212403547.post-44728582396549743122008-02-24T06:10:00.000-08:002008-02-24T06:10:00.000-08:00I prefer the bottom version, Lisa.

Just as an aside, and this is just me, but I would never show a buyer work that I was indecisive about. I suppose this position on the issue comes down to an adamant belief that artists should be responsible for their own work. While it's true that we sometimes don't completely understand what drives us, there's usually plenty of positive information to relate that includes an honest self-assessment when delving into an area that is largely intuitive. Just my 2¢ here. :)Mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17423557003198168150noreply@blogger.com
