Stretching T-shirts on Canvas - Artist Harry Fonseca

I love art. Always have. I ran across this Coyote Cafe t-shirt featuring art by Harry Fonseca, an artist I admire, (he passed away a few years ago). I always loved his Coyote series. My favorite piece of his was "Rosie and the Res Sisters", and a lithograph series he did of Coyotes eating Cotton Candy, can't remember the name. Anyway, that got me thinking.......Could this be cut and stretched like canvas on stretcher bars? It would make a wonderful piece of art.

Currently it is for sale in my Ebay shop, atticroute66. I also have a Picasso Lady in Yellow, it would be fun stretched too.

Thanks.

Art - Hanging - Unusual - Fun

I love art!! Always have. All different kinds and styles. These vintage Jean Jansen Lithographs were my husbands. They were done in 1968 and framed in the 70's. They are hanging in my office/work-out room. The frames are worn out, beat up and falling apart. But, I love them none the less. I also like to hang art in different ways. These were hung vertically, instead of horizontally. Gives a different impact.

Tutu art! Who doesn't love tutu art? I don't remember where this picture is from, but I love it. How fun.
Graphic impact walls. Still love them, but don't have any stairs.

Layering Artwork - Displaying Art - Styling Art

The pic below is from Carrie Brandshaw's Apartment in the HBO series Sex and The City. I love the layered artwork on the console. I also truly love the chair on the right, the leather Mission Chair.

This brings me to layering art. I love art. Really love it. I have it layered on my fireplace mantle in my front living room when you enter my home.

This is a fun layering of art. I have a picture of our dog, painted by my Mother-in-Law, an etching, the tree photo is by my daughter, the horses by me, and the two Serigraphs on the right are by artist Ed Wyatt. Love the look of layered art.

Here is a pulled back view of my fireplace mantle.
